Star cricketer Rinku Singh will be playing in IPL which will be going to be held in Abu Dhabi Dubai, wearing a jersey of 35 number. Rinku said that his batting number in playing XI not yet finalized but he has got a jersey number 35. Cricketer lovers of the district are expecting a better performance from Rinku who will be going to play IPL fourth time. He has been retained for the third consecutive time in the Kolkata Knight Riders (KKR) team for Rs 80 lakhs. On Sunday, there is a match between KKR and Royal Challenger Bengaluru (RCB) in which Rinku can play.
For the first time in 2017, Rinku was selected for Preity Zinta's Kings XI Punjab team for Rs 10 lakh. After that, the next year, Shah Rukh Khan's KKR team bid him for Rs 80 lakhs.
After this, the same team has retained the left-handed batsman for the same amount twice again. Rinku went to practice at the IPL camp in Mumbai, about 20 days ago and left for Abu Dhabi from there itself. Rinku failed to score big while playing for KKR. On discussing the flaws with his Aligarh based mentor Masood UZ Zafar Amini, he told that Rinku played the off-stump ball from very far enough. He has got a lot of practice at this point. Rinku told that he has practiced playing close to the ball on the off-site at Mahuakheda ground.
The Father of Rinku Khan Chand worked as a hawker at Govilla Gas Agency. Seeing his cricket passion, he sent Rinku to the stadium for training and got financial help from the chairman of the Jadaun Riders Club, Arjun Singh Fakira during his financial crisis.
Masood told that Rinku has been playing cricket since 2007-08 and he was to be selected in the UP-under-15 team in 2013-14 but someone suppressed their form and could not be submitted. He and Rinku's friend Zeeshan, with their efforts, talked to the selector of UP and filled the form again. On trial, Rinku was selected. Rinku continued to lead from there. If this brake was not given, then his career would have ended.
For four years, Rinku has been playing in the Ranji Trophy continuously. He also made a place in the teams of UP Under-15, Under-16-Under-19, etc. Having played in IPL four times, he has been named in the Indian A team and has light-up his name.
