Will a batsman who has not played a single international match become the captain of KKR? Will lead in Shreyas absence

Fifteen days are left for the start of the next season of the Indian Premier League i.e. IPL, the world’s biggest professional T20 league. But before the start of the tournament, two-time champions Kolkata Knight Riders have found themselves in a bit of trouble. Team captain Shreyas Iyer has a back injury and is unlikely to play the first few matches. In such a situation, KKR can lead the team with young batsman Rinku Singh as the new captain.

Shreyas suffered back pain during the Ahmedabad Test between India and Australia. Due to this he could not even come out to bat. He has also been ruled out of the two-team ODI series. According to reports, he may miss the opening five to six matches of the IPL due to this injury. In such a situation, Rinku Singh is likely to be seen leading the team.

According to a cricket website, there is a strong possibility that Rinku Singh will unexpectedly lead KKR in Shreyas’ absence. Some people in the team management have also shown support for this, and even experienced players are allowed for it.

If we consider the IPL career of Rinku, who plays domestic cricket for Uttar Pradesh, he has so far scored 251 runs in 5 only 17 matches. Although his name is the talk of the town as the captain, he may also have to compete with several senior players in the team. These include Nitish Rana, Sunil Narine, Andre Russell and Shakib Al Hasan.
