Rinku Singh made 474 runs in 14 games during the IPL 2023 season, which just ended. He averaged 59.25 runs per game and had a strike rate of 149.53. He won the hearts of fans and experts alike when he won some matches for Kolkata Knight Riders (KKR) on his own with some hard hits when the team was behind.
On Friday, June 16, the small hitter was seen at the famous Sawai Mansingh Indoor Stadium in Jaipur. He was there to watch a Premier Handball League game between Golden Eagles Uttar Pradesh and Rajasthan Patriots.
The gifted young man was there to cheer on the Golden Eagles Uttar Pradesh, the team from his home state. He said he was glad to be there to cheer on his home team. Rinku also said that he has been paying close attention to the Premier Handball League’s first season since the first game. He thinks that it will help the sport reach new heights in the future.

“Handball is a very exciting sport to watch live because it is so fast-paced. “I’m glad to be here and cheer for the Golden Eagles, which is my home team,” Rinku told My Khel, as quoted in the article.
“I’ve been watching the Premier Handball League since the first game, and every game has been a lot of fun. I am sure that the league will help raise the status of handball in India and help the country reach its full handball potential’, he said.
In the match, the Golden Eagles lost to Rajasthan by a score of 27-36. They only have one win in six games and are at the bottom of the table of points.
India is most likely to call up Rinku Singh.
Andre Russell, a veteran finisher, praised the 25-year-old Rinku Singh after he won a few games for KKR in the IPL 2023 when things didn’t look good. Who could forget Rinku’s heroics in the last over of the game in Ahmedabad, where he hit Gujarat Titans seamer Yash Dayal for five straight sixes to win the game for his team? After a successful IPL season, it looks like Rinku is about to get some good news. The Aligarh-born player might be called up to the national team soon.
