After Rinku Singh was dropped from the 15-member squad for the T20 World Cup, India captain Rohit Sharma was seen chatting with the youngster. The incident took place on the eve of the match between Mumbai Indians vs Kolkata Knight Riders at the Wankhede Stadium on Thursday. Rohit came straight to the stadium after attending a press conference with BCCI chief selector Ajit Agarkar addressing the T20 World Cup team selection. Upon his arrival, Rohit met some of the players including Rinku, who despite the insult, was all smiles during his conversation with the captain.

Admitting that the two may have held talks regarding the T20 World Cup squad, former Sunrisers Hyderabad (SRH) coach Tom Moody praised Rohit for being “honest and candid” with Rinku over his ouster.

Moody praised Rohit’s leadership and said that the experienced batsman has good skills and is highly respected among the players.

“That’s great leadership. Making sure you’re candid and honest. It’s easy to talk to someone when they’re included in the team, it’s always harder to talk to someone who’s been pushed out.” This is why Rohit Sharma is like this. “He is very respected in the playing group,” Moody said on Star Sports. He is a very good leader. “They have very important communication skills.”

Speaking at the press conference, Agarkar on Thursday said that deciding on Rinku was the toughest while choosing the team.

“Obviously, this is probably the hardest thing we’ve had to discuss. I mean, he or Shubman Gill have done nothing wrong. You know, it’s a combination again. We’re absolutely certain We’re not sure what conditions we’ll get, so we wanted to try and we had enough options, there are some spinners who were included in the team, so that gave Rohit an option again as a batting all-rounder or a bowling all-rounder. Can go.

“It’s unfortunate. I don’t think it has anything to do with Rinku Singh. It’s not his fault that he missed. We think it’s more than 15 that gives (India) the best chance. Two Along with the keepers, both of whom are brilliant, he said, the batsmen, there is already an extra batsman sitting out.
