IPL: Rinku Singh’s One-on-one With Yash Dayal Only 2 Days Before KKR Vs GT Game Goes Viral
Kolkata Knight Riders batsman Rinku Singh displayed a batting masterclass in the 13th match of the IPL 2023 against Gujarat Titans as he scored an unbeaten 48 off 21 balls in KKR vs GT match which included one four and six sixes out of which five came in Yash Dayal’s last over.
Kolkata Knight Riders needed 29 off the last six balls and at this stage with seven wickets down and a tail-ender batting at the other end, no one would have expected them to win the match. As soon as Rinku Singh got the strike on the second ball he made his intentions clear and hit Yash Dayal over covers for a six.
The deficit was reduced to 22 off four balls and now KKR needed four sixes to win the match and exactly the same happened. Rinku Singh smashed Yash Dayal to all parts of the ground and led his team towards a historic victory.
Now, a two-day-old conversation between the two players is going viral on social media where Yash Dayal is seen applauding Rinku Singh and calling him a “Big Player” for the match-winning knock he played against Royal Challengers Bangalore. Rinku also replied to Dayal’s comment and said thank you for the same.
