Star Team India batter Rinku Singh has said that he is ready to play well in the 2024 T20 World Cup if he gets a chance. He admitted that playing in the World Cup will be huge for him and that he is working hard towards that goal as well. Following his stunning show for Kolkata Knight Riders (KKR) in the Indian Premier League (IPL) 2023 season, Rinku earned his India debut and he has impressed in the finisher’s role. He also played a crucial cameo in the first T20I against Australia as well in Visakhapatnam.

In an interview with timesofindia.com, Rinku said, “Yes. I am ready. I don’t think much about the future. If I get the chance, I will surely grab it and do well. Be it any format or anywhere in the world, if I get the chance I will give my hundred percent. It will be a big big thing for me. I am the only male cricketer from Aligarh to play in IPL and India as well. This is a huge thing for me. Every cricketer’s dream is to play for India and represent the country in the World Cup. I am also living this dream. I don’t know how I will react when I see my name in the World Cup squad. But I will wait for that day. I am really working hard towards that goal.”

Rinku Singh hit an unbeaten 22 off 14 balls, hitting four fours as India chased down 209 in the first T20I in Visakhapatnam on Thursday, November 23 as well.

“I have been playing since 2013. I have played a number of matches. I love to play in different conditions and situations. Honestly, I love challenges. If someone says it is difficult or impossible, I love to do those things. The best part is that I believe in myself. I generally bat down the order and these kinds of crunch situations arise automatically. So, I am familiar with these situations now,” Rinku Singh concluded.
