"But Who Knows...": Ex-India Star's Sensational Prediction For Rinku Singh

Former Indian cricket team fast bowler Ashish Nehra was all praise for Rinku Singh following his tremendous form in the ongoing T20I series against Australia. Rinku proved his mettle as a finisher for Kolkata Knight Riders (KKR) in the Indian Premier League (IPL) and he was brilliant in the second T20I match as he slammed 31 off just 9 deliveries. Nehra called Rinku a major asset for the Indian cricket team and said that although he is restricted to T20I cricket right now, a consistent showing may find the explosive left-handed batter a place in the team for ODI cricket as well.

On Rohit Sharma, Virat Kohli's T20I Future, Ex India Star's Honest Verdict

Rohit, along with fellow veteran Virat Kohli, hasn't played a single game in the shortest format since the T20 World Cup semi-final defeat to England last year.

Post World Cup 2023, Rahul Dravid "Might Not Renew Contract If...": Report Presents Sensational Case

His two-year contract will expire at the end of ODI World Cup but head coach Rahul Dravid's future will be followed keenly in case the Indian team lifts the coveted trophy.
