Kolkata: Kolkata Knight Riders batsman Rinku Singh described his innings against Rajasthan Royals as crucial for his form and confidence, saying the innings was a turning point for the team. He also stressed the flexibility in his batting position, saying that he is willing to bat anywhere from No. 4 to lower middle order, depending on what position the team needs him.

Rinku also said that this win, KKR’s first win of the season, was a big relief and morale booster, and the team will try to carry this momentum forward.

This is our first win and now we will take advantage of this win and move forward.”

He also shared his way of playing under pressure, saying that even when some things did not go in his favor in the match, he was not hesitant in playing his shots and was always determined to take the match till the end.
