NEW DELHI: When Rinku Singh top-edged a fast full toss off Tanzim Sakib for a six over the wicketkeeper to bring up his half-century on Wednesday night, he animatedly pointed at his left forearm. There's a tattoo on that forearm which reads 'God's plan'.
It has never been easy to be Rinku Singh - right from his humble beginnings to making a name in Indian cricket through a stellar IPL 2023. Yet, for once, it seemed he was speeding along on a freeway till Jan 2024. His initiation in international cricket made him the toast of Indian cricket. The selectors said leaving him out of the first 15 for the T20 World Cup was one of the toughest decisions.
