Rinku Singh is an Indian cricketer. He plays for the Kolkata Knight Riders in the Indian Premier League and for Uttar Pradesh in domestic cricket. Singh represented Uttar Pradesh at the Under-16, Under-19, and Under-23 levels and Central Zone at the Under-19 level. He made his List A cricket debut for Uttar Pradesh in March 2014 at the age of 16 and top-scored with 83 in that match. Played five games in 2019 and a solitary game in 2020. He missed the entire 2021 season due to an injury. However, KKR backed him and retained him for Rs 55 lakh in the 2022 mega auction.
Strike rate:
In 40 First Class matches, from Uttar Pradesh, he has registered 2875 runs in 40 matches, at an average of 59.89 and 70.88 strike rates. The left-handed batter is aiming to keep on building his form in IPL 2023 and push for a spot in the national team.
The match which changed everything:
Rinku Singh`s amazing knock of 48 runs, in just 21 deliveries gave KKR one of the most memorable victories in the history of the IPL. 5 sixes in 5 balls of the last over against Gujarat Titans on 9 April. When 29 runs were required in the last over Rinku Singh1s knock, not only registered their victory in Tata IPL 2023 but brought back memories of Carlos Brathwaite’s four sixes off Ben Stokes in the final of the ICC World T20 2016. Rahul Tewatia also had similar five sixes for Rajasthan Royals in IPL 2020. We almost hoped he had a few more balls and would hit more sixes – As Rinku Singh’s father in an interview, on asking about his son’s performance, had said – “YE DIL MANGE MORE!!”
New Power Cricketer - The new rising star – RINKU SINGH.
Yes, you heard it right. Rinku Singh Cricketer is the new rising star. He’s already being compared to the likes of Sachin Tendulkar & Sewag and even Dhoni.
It’s almost impossible to have batsmen at all three levels in a team but occasionally it does. The idea is simple: if the top order fails, the middle order defends, and regenerates, so that the last order can blast, However, the scenario is always such that, as soon as the top order crumbles, you find the whole team following the tail.
Having a blaster at the end can win lost matches, exactly what had been done for Kolkata Night Riders. If you remember, just a match earlier, the team lost the match as he got caught trying to hit six. Had he been not out, the tables might have turned. In this game, however, he stood with rock-steady nerves and hit six one after the other.
