Newcomer Rinku Singh batted at a strike rate of 344.44 against australia in the second T20I of the five-match series on Sunday, outscoring suryakumar yadav and playing less balls than the india skipper. Rinku, who made his debut in the high-profile T20I series between india and australia with a scorching innings, has stayed committed to fulfilling his finisher's job in international cricket.

Rinku completed his sixth international game for india in Visakhapatnam in style, just like ms dhoni, but his last-ball six was not credited in the exciting win over Australia. His 14-ball 22 helped india accomplish a world-record chase against the freshly crowned world champions. Suryakumar's india raced to a comfortable 44-run triumph in another high-scoring encounter at thiruvananthapuram as the kolkata Knight Riders (KKR) hero followed it up with a searing knock of 31 off 9 balls.

In the post-match presentation, india T20I skipper Suryakumar said that the kid reminded him of someone who is frequently regarded as the top finisher in limited-overs cricket. Yes, Suryakumar was referring to famous cricketer ms dhoni when he praised Rinku for his critical cameo against the Men in Blue.


"When I saw Rinku come in to bat in the last game, his poise was outstanding." It made me think of someone. "Everyone knows the answer," said Suryakumar, who hit 19 from 10 balls in India's emphatic victory against pakistan on Sunday. Rinku has 128 runs in 4 T20I innings, with 12 fours and nine sixes. The explosive 26-year-old has a remarkable strike rate of 216.94 and has been undefeated for india in his previous three innings.
