Especially, in this era, I am looking forward to playing. I will play the World Cup next time- Rinku Rinku Singh was seen struggling in IPL 2024, due to which the management gave more priority to Shivam Dubey for the T20 World Cup 2024. Rinku says that selection is not in his hands and he is ready to work hard to make a place in the next T20 World Cup. It is every player’s dream to play the World Cup for the country and it is my dream too. I had performed well for India, but team selection is not in my hands. Maybe they (selectors) did not see me bowling at that time, or there was some other different thing. It was the selectors’ decision because of the team combination, but no matter, I will play the World Cup next time, I will work harder.
“I think he will do well in red-ball cricket just like Bumrah” Gavaskar gave this statement about which bowler
Sunil Gavaskar (Image Credit- Twitter X) India’s fast bowler Arshdeep Singh won the Player of the Match award against USA in the T20 World Cup 2024. Playing the third match of the tournament, Arshdeep led the pace attack along with Bumrah. Arshdeep took 4 wickets for 9 runs against Ireland on Wednesday, June 12. After seeing his performance, former India batsman Sunil Gavaskar has praised Arshdeep. Sunil Gavaskar has made a special demand to the BCCI regarding Arshdeep Singh, who was the hero of India’s victory against America. He has talked about giving the fast bowler a chance in red ball cricket. Speaking on Star Sports after USA vs India, Gavaskar said that Arshdeep’s ability to swing the ball both ways was like Jasprit Bumrah. Sunil Gavaskar praised Arshdeep Singh Speaking on Star Sports after the match against USA on Wednesday, Sunil Gavaskar said, “Arshdeep pitches the ball at the right length, targets the stumps for right-handers and away from left-handers. He has the ability to bowl the right length for both right-handed and left-handed batsmen. Against the USA, Arshdeep was not focusing on bowling yorkers but on maintaining the length of that ball. His bowling temperament is fantastic.” During this, Gavaskar compared the fast bowler to Jasprit Bumrah. He said that like Bumrah, Arshdeep can also perform lethally in red ball cricket. The former batsman said, “I think he has the same ability as Bumrah, he will perform well in red-ball cricket. If he can swing the white ball effectively, he can be equally effective with the red ball. The selectors should seriously consider him as an option for the Test team.”
