Rinku Singh: This former Indian cricketer sees Dhoni and Yuvraj in Rinku Singh, will become Team India’s finisher

Rinku will rock in the middle order

Speaking to Geo Cinema, More said, ‘I am waiting for his chance in the Indian team. And that batting position, No.5 and 6, he will do well at that position and can turn out to be a great finisher. We all have seen MS Dhoni and Yuvraj Singh. After that we did not find any player like him.

On Friday, Rinku made his T20I debut for India in the series opener against Ireland, but did not get to bat due to rain, which the visitors won by two runs via the DLS method. Former chief selector More said, ‘We tried to create such players, but it has not worked so far. There is also Tilak Verma, he can play that role too, Rinku is a brilliant fielder as well. And I have seen him in domestic cricket as well, I think he has improved a lot.

Rinku has blossomed from KKR team

Kolkata Knight Riders assistant coach Abhishek Nayar, who has worked closely with Rinku for the last six years, agreed with More’s views and pointed out that the left-handed batsman is fit to bat at number five or six in T20Is.

He said, ‘Hardik Pandya is coming in as a batsman and playing in the upper order, you need someone in the lower order who can get the job done for you. You had someone like Akshar Patel for this, but Rinku is all set.

Let us inform that seeing this stormy batting of Rinku Singh in T20 format, he was included in Team India. However, Rinku could not get a chance to bat in his debut match against Ireland. Jaspreet Bumrah, who was captaining Team India, gave the debut cap to Rinku Singh.
