IPL 2024: 'First they used to laugh at Rinku's name, then 5 sixes...,' Rinku Singh told how one innings changed his fate.

 


Rinku Singh on His Name: The playoff matches of the Indian Premier League 2024 (IPL 2024) are starting from today. Kolkata Knight Riders will face Sunrisers Hyderabad (KKR vs SRH) in the first qualifier of the playoffs. Both the teams will face each other at the Narendra Modi International Cricket Stadium in Ahmedabad. Before the match, a special video of Kolkata Knight Riders star batsman Rinku Singh has surfaced. In the video, Rinku Singh while talking about his name told how his name was made fun of.

Rinku Singh's name was made fun of

Indian Premier League has shared the video of Rinku Singh from its official Instagram account. While talking about her name in the video, Rinku said, 'Many people asked me whether their name Rinku is spoken at home or is it a similar name. On which I told that this is my real name and there is no different name at home. Many people said that Rinku is a name for girls. To be honest, initially I did not think that this name had so much power, but as I kept playing cricket, I kept playing it. When the weight of my name increased, my name gained some value from those five sixes.

The five sixes discussed by Rinku Singh in the video. He had hit it against Gujarat Titans in IPL 2023. To win the match, KKR needed 29 runs in the last five balls. From here Rinku Singh became fierce in batting and hit 5 consecutive sixes off the ball of the then fast bowler Yash Dayal of Gujarat Titans. KKR had won this exciting match on the basis of Rinku Singh's explosive batting. After this inning, Rinku Singh never looked back in his career and continued to reach great heights.

However, Rinku Singh's bat has not done much in IPL 2024. He has scored 168 runs in 12 matches played so far. In such a situation, Rinku would like to return to his form from the qualifier match and win the team the third IPL title.
