The ascent to prominence of star batter Rinku Singh of the Kolkata Knight Riders has been motivational. Rinku has been a star player for KKR and has even been able to play for the Indian side in white-ball cricket since his historic knock against the Gujarat Titans in the IPL 2023.
Rinku Singh, who has so far made 15 T20I appearances for India, is noteworthy for having amassed 356 runs at an incredible average of 89.00 and a remarkable strike rate of 176.23.
Rinku’s name has been mentioned frequently for the Indian team’s lineup for the forthcoming T20 World Cup 2024, since he has amassed 123 runs in nine IPL 2024 games. In relation to this, Bollywood actor Shah Rukh Khan, who co-owns Kolkata Knight Riders, recently spoke out and expressed his desire to see the great batter represent India in the World Cup.

“The players representing the nation are great. Inshallah, Rinku and a few other young players from other teams making the World Cup squad excites me much. Though I really hope Rinku joins the team, some of them really deserve it. I will be overjoyed. That will be the pinnacle of my career, SRK stated to Star Sports.
“I just want them to be happy, and watching these boys play makes me feel like I’m living my own life as a sportsperson.” I recognize myself in players like Nitish (Rana) and Rinku, in particular. When they do well, I’m incredibly thrilled,” he continued.
As the playoff competition heats up, KKR easily defeats DC.
