The cricketer who has played several impressive knocks was snubbed from India's T20 World Cup 2024 squad. His omission from the squad raised quite a few eyebrows, considering his positive performance for the Indian side before the tournament.
However, Rinku was a part of India's travel squad along with Shubman Gill, Khaleel Ahmed and Avesh Khan.
The cricketer recently opened up on how Sharma consoled him and shared a piece of advice which helped Rinku cope up with the snub. Not only this, but like any other young Indian cricketer, Rinku heaped praise on India's T20 World Cup 2024 winning captain and opened up on how it is like to bat with Sharma.
Rinku talked to News 24 and said that Sharma is a very chill and easy-to-bat-with guy. He said, 'Chill aadmi hai badiya ekdum maje dilate hain batting mei. Mujhe bol rahe the aaram se badiya batting karta reh, udhar se six lag rahe the.' ('Luckily, I have batted with Rohit Bhaiya, it was fun to bat with him.
He is a chill guy and he makes batting so much fun. He asked to keep batting and he himself was hitting sixes at the other end.')
