IPL 2023: AB de Villiers Hails IPL’s Mighty Performer Rinku Singh, Says He is an Unstoppable Match Winner

Kolkata Knight Riders' Rinku Singh Receives Praise from AB de Villiers for Consistent Brilliance in IPL 2023

AB de Villiers, the renowned former South African cricketer and an IPL legend, recently showered accolades on KKR’s Rinku Singh for his exceptional and unwavering performance in the IPL 2023. KKR’s recent victory over Chennai Super Kings showcased Singh’s prowess, helping keep their playoff hopes alive. Despite CSK’s challenging score of 144-6, KKR faced a daunting start as they lost key players, including Jason Roy, Rahmanullah Gurbaz, and Venkatesh Iyer, within the powerplay. CSK’s spinners had been formidable throughout the tournament, intensifying KKR’s predicament.

However, it was Rinku Singh, KKR’s designated finisher, who joined forces with captain Nitish Rana, forging a century partnership that set KKR on the path to victory. Singh played a pivotal role in the match, contributing a crucial 54 runs off 43 balls before being run out, while Rana remained unbeaten on 57. Singh’s consistent match-winning performances have been a recurring theme throughout the season for KKR, notably exemplified by his explosive blitz against Yash Dayal of the Gujarat Titans, where he struck five sixes in the final over to secure victory.

Celebrating his well-deserved Man of the Match award, Singh humbly expressed that he bats in a similar position in domestic cricket and applies the same approach. He attributes his success to rigorous hard work, maintaining a healthy diet, and harnessing unwavering power on the field.
