Rinku Singh: Team India will start its campaign on the Sri Lanka tour in just a few days from now. Both the teams will play a three-match T20 series from July 27. The Indian team has reached Sri Lankan soil for this. Yesterday, the first practice session of this team was also held under the leadership of Gautam Gambhir.

However, during this time, the team's explosive batsman Rinku Singh got seriously injured. The situation is now such that he will be out of the entire series. In his place, another young batsman who scored a century in his second international match will be included as a replacement.

Rinku Singh got injured before Sri Lanka tour

Rinku Singh made his international debut for Team India last year. Since then, he has played 20 T20 and 2 ODI matches. In T20, the left-handed batsman has scored 416 runs at an average of 83.20, which includes two half-century innings.

In view of this, his name was included as a reserve player in the Indian squad for the T20 World Cup 2024. At the same time, this 26-year-old player was given a place in the T20 series on the upcoming Sri Lanka tour. However, he injured himself during the practice session even before the tour. Actually, a journalist named Rohit Juglan told through Twitter that Rinku has a back problem. He is not fully fit.

The end of anchor innings in T20 format starts from here - Gambhir's presence was telling this

But the story and its strongest character today was Hardik - his and Abhishek Nair's match simulation was the soul of today's practice -

I hope Rinku's back is fine -

This explosive batsman will replace him in the team

Team India will play the first T20 match against Sri Lanka in Pallekele from July 27. Rinku Singh's injury before this match must have increased the concerns of the team management. Let us tell you that if he is not fit, then Abhishek Sharma can be included in the team as a replacement.
