Rinku Singh hitting a six to Mitchell Starc

Kolkata Knight Riders failed to qualify for the playoffs last season by finishing seventh on the points table, winning six games and lost the remaining eight games. Nitish Rana who replaced the injured Shreyas Iyer in IPL 2023 season lacked the tenacity to take the team forward. Nevertheless, KKR player, Rinku Singh became a major talking point for his blistering batting masterclass.

KKR’s Rinku Singh stole the spotlight when he hit 5 consecutive sixes off Yash Dayal in the clash against Gujarat Titans where he pulled off an impossible task to guide the team to a memorable win. Rinku Singh will be looking forward to bolstering the team’s batting attack in the upcoming season. Shreyas Iyer is back to lead the team whereas Gautam Gambhir has reunited with his old franchise, this time as a mentor.

The two-time IPL champions have been busy playing the intra squad games between Team Gold and Team Purple. The first two practice games have been done and dusted, with each team winning one game. During the second practice game, Rinku Singh hammered the IPL’s most expensive signing (INR 24.75 crore) Mitchell Starc for a huge six and the video clip of the same has gone viral. Mitchell Starc pitched in with a lower full toss and it was so easy for Rinku Singh to dispatch the ball into the stands towards the leg side for a maximum.

KKR won two IPL titles since the inaugural edition of India’s premier T20 competition, with their first title triumph coming against Chennai Super Kings in 2012 edition. They won their second IPL title in 2014 by beating Kings XI Punjab (now Punjab Kings) in the final. KKR won both titles under Gautam Gambhir’s captaincy.

It remains to be seen how KKR would go about their work in the next season. They will begin their IPL 2024 campaign on March 23, Saturday against Sunrisers Hyderabad at Eden Gardens in Kolkata.
