Former Indian allrounder and Head coach Ravi Shastri praised Yashasvi Jaiswal and Rinku Singh for their recent performances, Yashasvi Jaiswal has scored 575 runs in his 12 innings with a strike-rate of 167.15 for RR while Rinku Singh has scored 353 runs in 12 innings for KKR with a strike rate of 146.47 in IPL 2023. Ravi Shastri believes selectors should give these youngsters more opportunities before the ICC Men’s ODI Cricket World Cup 2023 also. Rinku Singh smashed five consecutive sixes against Gujrat Titans and Yashasvi Jaiswal registered the fastest half-century in IPL history both of them gained the favours of fans and former players.
Ravi Shastri said:
“If Team India is focussing on ODI World Cup, selectors should look to give as many opportunities to the youngsters like Yashasvi and Rinku. These players should be fast-tracked and can be prepared for next year’s T20 World Cup in West Indies. If the selectors don’t pick them now then I don’t know what else they are looking for,”
He added,
“Yashasvi Jaiswal isn’t just knocking at the doors of the Indian Cricket Team, he seems to be breaking it with his consistently good performances. He’s carried his imperious form of domestic cricket into IPL. What a talent he is! The future of Indian Cricket is in good hands.”
“If the selectors don’t pick them now then I don’t know what else they are looking for.
