Outrage as Rinku Singh Left Out of India T20 World Cup 2024 Squad
The exclusion of Rinku Singh from the India T20 World Cup 2024 Squad has sparked controversy among cricket fans. Despite his impressive performance in the IPL, the Kolkata Knight Riders batter has not been selected in the final squad announced by the BCCI.
Netizens took to social media to express their disappointment with the decision, citing Rinku Singh’s outstanding average and strike rate in T20 matches. Many fans believe that he deserved a spot in the main squad based on his consistent performances in the shortest format of the game.
Rinku Singh’s performance in the ongoing IPL season has been decent, although he has not been able to make a significant impact due to his role as a finisher for KKR. With 123 runs in 9 matches at a strike rate of 150.00, Singh has shown glimpses of his potential but has not been able to fully capitalize on his opportunities.
While Rinku Singh has missed out on a spot in the final 15-man squad for the T20 World Cup, he has been named as one of the reserves along with players like Shubman Gill, Khaleel Ahmed, and Avesh Khan. It remains to be seen if he will get a chance to represent India in the tournament if any of the main squad players are unable to participate due to injury or other reasons.
The controversy surrounding Rinku Singh’s exclusion highlights the intense competition for spots in the Indian cricket team and the high expectations of fans when it comes to selecting the best players for major tournaments.
