Rinku Singh performed a knock for the ages to avoid wasting Kolkata Knight Riders (KKR)’s blushes in an IPL 2023 sport towards the Gujarat Titans. With KKR wanting 29 runs off the overall over, Rinku smashed GT pacer Yash Dayal for 5 sixes at the trot and attach a memorable win for KKR. Former Forward of KKR’s sport towards SunRisers Hyderabad (SRH) on Friday, Bharat opener Virender Sehwag has now when compared Rinku to the likes of Sachin Tendulkar and MS Dhoni.
Sehwag defined that after Tendulkar and Dhoni have been have been batting, the Indian group at all times had hopes at the two legends. In a similar fashion, with Rinku within the aspect, KKR even have any person who they are able to depend on.
“There is a belief in KKR team that Rinku Singh is still there. When MS Dhoni had started finishing off games, there was a belief that Dhoni is still there. In 90s, it was if Tendulkar is there match can be won, if not then no. Now the same thing is with KKR and Rinku Singh. Before it was Andre Russell for them,” Sehwag said on Cricbuzz.
On the other hand, Sehwag instructed that Rinku gained’t be capable to fit or higher his feat of hitting 5 sixes in an over.
“This has never happened in the history of cricket and Rinku Singh will never be able to do this again. This record that has happened, it might be broke, but Rinku will never in his life be able to hit 6 sixes and break that record. You also need a bit of luck. If it was Alzarri Joseph bowling even Rinku would have known that he wouldn’t be able to hit him. But he has faced Yash Dayal all his life in the nets. So Rinku had the right mindset,” he added.
