From The Clutches Of Poverty, Rise Of KKR Hero Rinku Singh Isn't Just Another Rags-To-Riches Story

sports.ndtv.com

The Indian Premier League (IPL) isn't the most popular T20 league in the world just for its glamour, player duels, packed stadiums, and cricketing richness but also for the fact that it provides a level-pegging platform to everyone, regardless of their background.

The story of Kolkata Knight Riders (KKR) batter Rinku Singh is one of the brightest examples of how IPL can lift someone from the extremes of poverty to superstardom.

While the IPL 2022 season showed a glimpse of what Rinku can do with the bat, the 2023 season has given the world a true example of what he is potentially capable of.

The 25-year-old belongs to one of the most humble backgrounds. But even the hard life Rinku and his parents had to go through didn't see the prodigy lose the big smile he always carries on his face.
