KKR need to win the match against the Sanju Samson-led Royals, who have lost four of their last five matches. A loss against KKR will affect Rajasthan Royals’ playoff chances. Former India off-spinner Harbhajan Singh, who spent some time in the KKR dressing room, believes Rinku’s growth story will help him get an India cap soon. Harbhajan said on Star Sports Cricket Live, ‘India cap is not far away from Rinku’s head.
He is an inspirational player. He has worked hard to reach where he is today. Full credit goes to him for believing in himself. Her journey is a life lesson and all young children should learn from her. Former Indian cricketer Mohammad Kaif also praised KKR star batsman Rinku Singh for taking his game to the next level in IPL 2023 with his maturity. Kaif said, ‘Rinku Singh has that maturity. His footwork is very good and he also seems to rotate the strike. Rinku knows how to convert his form into a good innings and he also knows when to change gears. He is also capable of hitting big shots.
