Former Indian cricketer Saba Karim weighed in on why picking Rinku Singh in India's T20 World Cup 2026 was not a tough job for the selectors. The 15-member squad for next year's mega event was announced at the BCCI headquarters on December 20.
Karim mentioned that he was surprised with Rinku's exclusion from the T20I squad for the recently-concluded series against South Africa.
The erstwhile wicketkeeper-batter opined that Rinku was a more proven finisher than Jitesh Sharma. He also noted that Rinku was a more natural choice over Jitesh considering Sanju Samson and Ishan Kishan have been included in the setup.
