Rahman boarded the flight for Dubai on May 14 - the day he was named as DC's replacement for Jake Fraser-McGurk - but is now likely to be released by the BCB after their first game against UAE on May 17.
It is not clear whether he will be available for selection for the DC vs Gujarat Titans game on May 18 but linking up with the squad will be a big boost to the side chasing the playoffs.
As TimesofIndia.com had reported on Thursday night, Mitchell Starc will not be returning for the remainder of the IPL and DC were looking at Rahman to do the job in his absence.
The Axar Patel-led unit are currently fifth on the points table with six wins from 11 games and have matches remaining against GT, Mumbai Indians and Punjab Kings.
