Rinku has arrived.He should be in the ODI team too,finally a guy who doesnt lose his head in tough situations.

Hope he gets opportunities to prove it against top-quality teams in high-stakes environments. He seems to have all the tools.

The proof was in the pudding,, which I had with the young Rinku. You just have to trust me on this. 

Hmm ... this is getting interesting. Are you like his sibling or neighbour or classmate?

He continues not to be a national treasure. Disappointing.

[zaqw222222]

Hope Rinku continues to play at 5 or 6 for his IPL team and his domestic team so that he can continue to flourish in this finisher role. Usually batsmen which form our top 6, they all play in top 3 in their IPL or domestic teams.

If India really wants to maximize Rinku's contribution they need a solid lower order as well. We don't want situation where Rinku is stuck with a very long tail.

Fans can be so fickle - you know what they’re going to call him when he inevitably goes through a slump - Stinku Singh

Whatever it is, if you know him personally, please convey to him that he has had the backing and support of internet fans even before he made it into the India XI. And that, no matter what, his obvious talent, work-ethic and dedication are inspiring.

 

Lage Raho Rinku Bhai!

Should have been there in WC itself but TM is too scared to take such calls.

And yet we played a 32 yr old HACK Shunya Kumar who laid eggs throughout the WC.

They backed eggsperience. Need good FC players in ODIs who can play in any conditions.

Rinku is better than sky.  Can play on tougher surfaces.

National treasure sirf Kapil aur Dhoni hain

I agree that not every Tom , Dick and Harry should be national treasure but it is another extreme to put only Dhoni and Kapil in that category. Many players have played their role during their time through performance and leadership.

 

Golden generation of Tendulkar, Ganguly, Dravid, Laksman, Kumble, Sehwag established seeds of the team that we seen during Dhoni era. The level of opponents that they have played is far greater than anything in last 10 years and still was comfortably one of the sides to beat during their time. 

 

Both Dhoni and Kapil team were below average Test teams with Dhoni particularly struggling a lot against decent oppositions post the world cup win.
