Ex-India all-rounder Irfan Pathan, addressing KKR's concerns ahead of IPL 2026, said Rinku Singh couldn't fully capitalise on the opportunities he got in T20 World Cup 2026. "Rinku's IPL 2023 season was outstanding. He scored 400-450 runs with strike rate of 150. But after that, his performance dipped," he added. Rinku amassed 206 runs in 13 games in IPL 2025.
