In an interaction, former Australia all-rounder and experience IPL campaigner with teams like KKR, KXIP and CSK, has revealed that it is not Arjun Tendulkar but a young KKR batter that he wants to play for Team India soon.
While stars like Faf Du Plessis, Virat Kohli and others have been lighting up the
IPL 2023 , there have also been some unknown Indian youngsters who have been phenomenal in the cash-rich league this season,
Arjun Tendulkar , son of the legendary Sachin Tendulkar, too made his debut for Mumbai Indians this year. He has already picked up three wickets and impressed one and all with his brilliant bowling skills. However, according to former
KKR and Australia player
David Hussey , it is not him, but
Rinku Singh who should be making his India debut soon.
Rinku Singh has been in sensational form for Kolkata Knight Riders this season in the
IPL . He is the team’s second-leading run scorer with 270 runs, including two half-centuries. He has produced one of the moments of IPL 2023, when he hit five sixes in five balls in the last over of a game vs Gujarat Titans to help his team clinch a memorable win. He has scored at an average of 54 and a strike rate in excess of 150.
In an interaction with Star Sports, David Hussey has revealed that he wants Rinku to make his debut soon for Team India given his phenomenal record in the domestic circuit in addition to the IPL.
“Rinku Singh is a phenomenal talent. He has been doing well in domestic cricket and the KKR franchise has backed him well. He’s grown in his confidence and taking his game to the next level. Hopefully, he gets to play for India soon,” Hussey said in the interaction.
Though Rinku has been in great form, his team KKR has not been at their best in IPL 2023. They have just registered 6 points on the board from 9 games, and stare at an early elimination from the tournament. Their recent loss came at the hands of Gujarat Titans at the Eden Gardens on April 29.
