The BCCI has included Rinku Singh in the Indian squad for the Asia Cup 2025, providing him with a chance to prove his mettle. Singh, known for his finishing abilities in T20 cricket, faces the challenge of improving his current form. In a recent UP T20 League 2025 match, representing the Meerut Mavericks, he scored 23 runs. Despite the team reaching 150-8, Singh’s innings stood out due to the lack of significant runs. His struggles are not limited to this recent game. His IPL 2025 campaign with the Kolkata Knight Riders was underwhelming, with only 206 runs scored. Furthermore, in the T20I series against England earlier this year, his performance was below par, accumulating just 39 runs across two innings. The upcoming Asia Cup is crucial for Singh to cement his position in the team, particularly with the 2026 T20 World Cup on the horizon. He has demonstrated flashes of brilliance previously, but consistent performances are essential in international cricket. India’s selectors are banking on his ability to change the game, and his success in the Asia Cup could redefine his career.
