Rinku Singh, a swashbuckling batter of Kolkata Knight Riders, feels that the Indian Premier League has now reached a platform, where the team that dissolves a magical 300 -run barrier in an innings will not be a surprise. In this version of the league in the upside count of IPL 2025, the actual version of the league had the real possibility of the teams going back to 300, thanking the franchisees for focusing tirelessly on the huting on the continuous power of the franchise. During a chat with Jiohotstar, Rinku supported the possibility of the team that dissolved the 300 -run mark, citing the previous successful pursuit, as evidence of how the game has developed.
“, We can do it. IPL has reached a platform where 300 are also possible; last year, Punjab chased a total of 262 runs. All teams are strong this season – anyone can reach 300,” said big hitting Rinku.
Last year, after scaling 250 three times during his runner-up finish, Sunrisers Hyderabad came close to reaching 300 in their initial game this season.
However, he eventually ended at 286/7 against Rajasthan Royals, which was one of his previous best of his last 287/3 against RCB last year, which is also a record of IPL.
Rinku also reflected her role as a finisher, shared insight on fitness and composer.
“I usually bat at number 5 or 6 – I have done it up and IPL, so I am used to it. I focus a lot on fitness because with 14 matches in the IPL, it is my responsibility to maintain my body and recover well.
“I often talk to Mahi Bhai – he asks me to remain calm and play according to the position of the match. Things fall when you are composed.” Rinku also opened on how he continues to develop into a batsman by learning from senior players like Andre Russell in KKR Squad.
“I have been learning since I have started playing in the IPL. I look closely at Russell, especially how he bats in the last overs, and how he uses his body to create power. I keep looking and raising things from him,” Rinku said.
