KKR vs PBKS Live Updates, IPL 2025: How Rinku Singh has evolved as a finisher

Rinku Singh recently opened up on his role as a finisher for his team, the Kolkata Knight Riders.

"I usually bat at No. 5 or 6 — I’ve done that for Uttar Pradesh (in domestic cricket) and in the IPL, so I’m used to it. I focus a lot on fitness because with 14 matches in the IPL, it’s my responsibility to maintain my body and recover well. I also speak to Mahi bhai often — he tells me to stay calm and play according to the match situation. Things fall into place when you stay composed," Rinku said.

Rinku also opened up on how he continues to evolve as a batter by learning from seniors like Andre Russell.

"I’ve been learning since I started playing in the IPL. I observe Russell closely, especially how he bats in the final overs, and how he uses his body to generate power. I keep watching and picking up things from him," he added.
