Indian batter Rinku Singh expressed his ambition to represent India in Test cricket, saying that there is a perception around him being a one-format player, but he can play all three formats and dreams of donning the whites for India. Rinku, who has played 48 T20Is, scoring 702 runs in 35 innings at an average of 36.94 and a strike rate of 156.34, with three fifties and has also featured in two ODIs, scoring 55 runs, was speaking to JioStar.
So, we hope both of them are with the team, and that they lift that trophy,” he signed off. The tournament will be co-hosted by South Africa, Namibia and Zimbabwe. “They are legends, both Virat bhaiya and Rohit bhaiya. Not just me, but the entire nation hopes that they play in the World Cup and are part of the team that goes on to win it. It would be a huge moment for the whole country, as who knows, it could be their last World Cup. So, it would be huge if they can win it for India.
Because we haven’t won the World Cup in a long time, it would be huge for them as well,. Rinku, who represents UP in state cricket, enjoys a healthy first-class record, with 3,757 runs in 53 matches and 76 innings at an average of 58.70, including nine centuries and 23 fifties in 76 innings. In 70 List-A matches, Rinku has made 2,418 runs in 64 innings, averaging 52.56, scoring two centuries and 21 fifties while maintaining a strike rate of 101.17. Rinku also expressed his desire to see ODI-exclusive stars Rohit Sharma and Virat Kohli lift the 2027 ODI World Cup title. Both will be in action during West Indies ODIs at home from September 27 onwards. We last won it in 2011. He has an incredible record in successful run-chases, having made 6,235 runs in 111 matches and 105 innings at an average of 89.07, including 24 centuries and 29 fifties. This year in ODIs, Virat has 384 runs in six innings at an average of 64.00 and a strike rate of over 106, with a century and three fifties.
