Former India opener Aakash Chopra has praised India’s young finisher Rinku Singh for his brilliant knock in the ongoing five-match T20 series against Australia, saying the series has been marked by his batting heroics. I believe it will be remembered as an act.
Rinku Singh was also brilliant with the bat in the 4th Twenty20 International against Australia. The left-handed batsman scored a 46-run comeback in just 29 balls, hitting two sixes and four boundaries. Rinku entered the match when India were 63/3 and helped the Men in Blue reach 174/9 in 20 overs.
In a video shared on his YouTube channel, Aakash Chopra feels that the ongoing series against Australia will be remembered for Rinku Singh’s impressive batting performance. Masu. He feels that Singh has the versatility to bat in any position in the Indian team, and the on-field umpire put Rinku’s feet in front of the wicket when the ball barely touched his leg stumps. I felt it was a mistake.
“This series will remain in Rinku’s memory. He was assigned different roles in different positions and performed them. He was very good. He could hit anywhere. Yes, I was allowed to bat in the 9th over. The six he hit on the reverse sweep were extraordinary hits. ”
“He played till the end and was dismissed after 20 overs. I feel like he wasn’t out. The umpire shouldn’t have given it. The umpire gets the benefit of the doubt. Not the batsmen,” Aakash Chopra said.
The left-handed batsman has been a regular in the lower-middle order in the few matches he has played since India’s tour of Ireland. Rinku Singh strong> has an easy transition into the Indian team’s line-up, so he will feature in the T20I series during the upcoming tour of South Africa.
It Was An Important Match For Jitesh Sharma – Aakash Chopra
Aakash Chopra praised India’s wicketkeeper-batsman Jitesh Sharma for seizing chances to score runs for his team when given the chance and playing some great shots on the ground. After a long wait, the 30-year-old finally played his first international match for India outside of the Asian Games.
“Jitesh played well. This was an important match for him as he doesn’t get many chances. He played some good shots straight to the ground,” added Aakash Chopra.
After a series of stellar performances in Vidarbha, Jitesh created a buzz on the IPL stage in 2022 and 2023. He made his debut for India in the Asian Games men’s cricket tournament and attracted a lot of attention. He wants to show off his skills and continue his good form going forward.
