"Rinku Singh Has Been Left Out Because...": IPL-Winning Coach's Blunt Take On Star's Exclusion From T20 World Cup Squad
On Rinku Singh's surprising omission from India's 15-member squad for the Men's T20 World Cup, Tom Moody, the former Australia all-rounder, thinks it happened mainly due to the balance of the team, where they needed another spin-bowling all-rounder in Axar Patel. Rinku has played 15 T20Is for India since his debut last year. He has majorly excelled as a finisher, by scoring 356 runs at a strike rate of 176.23. But in IPL 2024, he hasn't got ample batting opportunities for Kolkata Knight Riders - making 123 runs off 82 balls in eight innings coming in the lower middle-order at a strike rate of 150.
