In an unexpected turn of events, neither of the IPL 2024 finalists boasts a single player in India’s 15-member T20 World Cup 2024 squad.
Despite his presence in the Kolkata Knight Riders, Rinku Singh finds himself designated as a reserve for the ICC event, notably absent from the primary squad.
The narrative could have been altered had the Rajasthan Royals advanced to the final, with three of their players—Sanju Samson, Yashasvi Jaiswal, and Yuzvendra Chahal—all securing spots in India’s T20 World Cup lineup.
