Rinku Singh played a knockout for the ages to save the Kolkata Knight Riders (KKR) blush in the 2023 IPL game against the Gujarat Titans. As KKR needed 29 runs to the final, Rinku smashed GT pacer Yash Dayal into five sixes at the trot to give KKR a memorable win. Former Ahead of KKR’s game against SunRisers Hyderabad (SRH) on Friday, Indian rookie Virender Sehwag has now compared Rinka to the likes of Sachin Tendulkar and M.S. Dhoni.
Sehwag explained that when Tendulkar and Dhoni hit the ball, the Indian team always put their hopes on the two legends. Likewise, with Rinku on the side, KKR also has someone they can rely on.
“There is a belief in the KKR team that Rinku Singh is still there. When MS Dhoni started playing games, there was a belief that Dhoni was still out there. then no. Now the same with KKR and Rinku Singh. They used to have Andre Russell for them,” Sehwag told Cricbuzz.
However, Sehwag suggested that Rinku would not be able to match or surpass his feat of hitting five sixes in an over.
“This has never happened in the history of cricket and Rinku Singh will never be able to do it again. This record, which has been, can be broken, but Rinku will never be able to hit 6 sixes and break this record in his life. “You also need a bit of luck. If it was Alzarri Joseph’s bowling, even Rinku would know he couldn’t hit him. But he’s faced Yash Dayal in nets all his life. So Rinku had the right attitude,” added He.
