After Virat Kohli, Rinku Singh Approaches Rohit Sharma For His Bat. Here's What Happened Next

Kolkata Knight Riders (KKR) batter Rinku Singh made a desperate attempt to get his hands on one of Rohit Sharma's bats. However, Rinku found no look as fellow KKR teammate Angkrish Raghuvanshi was the lucky recepient this time. After the match between KKR and Mumbai Indians (MI), Rinku was spooted inside the home team's dressing room at the Wankhede Stadium. In a video posted by MI, Rinku was seen standing next to Rohit, who was checking the bats in his kit bag.

However, Rinku was teased by MI batter Tilak Varma for asking Rohit for a bat. "Dekho, khud ke naam pe itna acha bats aaya hai fir bhi bat maang raha hai (Rohit) bhaiya se," Tilak can be seen as saying in the video.

At the end of the video, Raghuvanshi had a big smile on his face after receiving a bat from India captain Rohit.
