He got a place in T20 World Cup… Shahrukh expressed this wish for this KKR player
Kolkata Knight Riders co-owner Shahrukh Khan has backed his team’s aggressive batsman Rinku Singh to be included in the Indian team for the T20 World Cup 2024 and has also expressed his personal wish. 26-year-old Rinku came into limelight when he hit 5 consecutive sixes in the last over to lead KKR to victory over Gujarat Titans in IPL 2023.
Rinku is also a strong contender in the T20 World Cup
Rinku is a contender for a place in India’s 15-member team for the T20 World Cup to be held in America and West Indies in June. He has scored 2 fifties in 15 T20 Internationals for India and has a strike rate of over 176.
What did Shahrukh Khan say?
Shahrukh, optimistic about Rinku’s World Cup prospects, said that the best player is playing for the country. I am curious about Rinku. Inshallah he will get a place in the World Cup team and youngsters will also get a place in other teams. He also said that some of them deserve it and my personal wish is that Rinku gets a place in the team. I will be very glad. He has scored the most runs for KKR in this session, although it is also being said that Rinku’s bat has not got much chance.
