Rinku Singh
With Shardul Thakur and Rinku Singh leading the charge, Kolkata Knight Riders (KKR) defeated Royal Challengers Bangalore (RCB) in the Indian Premier League (IPL) 2023. Because of how significant the win was, co-owner Shah Rukh Khan joined the team in their joy.
But, the Knight Riders batsman had a hilarious answer when Shah Rukh urged his teammates to accompany Rinku Singh to the ground from the locker room, leaving everyone in splits.
The Hilarious response
Shah Rukh instructed his players to follow Rinku as he left the changing room for the post-game presentation after the game was over. But Rinku backed out, realising he would have to address the media in English. He stated, “Sab English wale hain (everyone would speak English).

The Hard-hitting Match
During the game, Kolkata Knight Riders had a spectacular homecoming with an 81-run victory over Royal Challengers Bangalore in the IPL thanks to Shardul Thakur’s counterattacking half-century and the spinners’ flawless performance.
KKR found themselves tottering for 89/5 before Thakur led a superb recovery with his 29-ball 68 to power his team to 204/7 after RCB opted to bowl.
Coming in at No 7, Thakur hammered the joint-fastest fifty of the season off 20 balls and shared an entertaining 103-run wicket partnership off 47 balls with Rinku Singh (46 off 33).
