Rinku Singh, despite his commendable performance, was left out of India's 15-man squad for the 2024 T20 World Cup but included as a travelling reserve. Rinku revealed that India captain Rohit Sharma consoled him, emphasizing his young age and the many future opportunities, urging him to keep working hard as there is a World Cup every two years. Following the snub, Rinku impressed in India's tours to Zimbabwe and Sri Lanka, showcasing his versatility with both bat and ball. India ultimately won the T20 World Cup 2024 under Sharma's leadership, ending an 11-year ICC trophy drought. Rinku, who is captaining the Meerut Mavericks in the UP T20 League, expressed admiration for both Sharma's and Virat Kohli's captaincy styles. He remains optimistic about future selections and focused on his game.
