Rinku Singh’s bat, which was selected for the Asia Cup 2025 in Team India, still looks silent. He also disappointed in UP T20 League 2025 after a simple performance in the IPL and England series. Now the question is whether the Asia Cup will be the last big opportunity for Rinku to silence its critics.
Rinku Singh got a place in Team India’s 15 -member team for the Asia Cup 2025 on Tuesday (August 19). His fans were very happy with this news, but in the UP T20 League 2025 on the same day, his bat again became silent.
Rinku scored 23 runs against Lucknow Falkans while playing for Meerut Mevrix, that too off 19 balls. His innings brought only 3 fours and in the 15th over, Parv Singh dismissed him. Rinku’s team could score only 150/8 runs in 20 overs.
Actually, Rinku’s poor form has been going on since IPL 2025. For Kolkata Knight Riders, he scored just 206 runs in 11 innings. Earlier, his bat remained silent in the T20 series against England, where he scored 39 runs in 2 innings.
Now everyone’s eyes will be on the Asia Cup 2025, as this tournament can prove to be the biggest chance for them. If Rinku does not live up to expectations here too, it can be very difficult to replace his place in the 2026 T20 World Cup team.
