Kris Srikkanth, a former cricketer and World Cup winner, has raised concerns regarding Rinku Singh's performance for the Kolkata Knight Riders (KKR) in the ongoing season. He believes that Singh, who has struggled to make an impact as a finisher, is not suited for the No. 5 batting position and should instead bat at No. 7. Srikkanth emphasized that Singh excels at rotating the strike but falters when the required run rate exceeds 10 or 12. He also criticized the entire KKR batting lineup, stating that only Angkrish Raghuvanshi has shown intent this season, while others, including Finn Allen, have been underperforming. Srikkanth suggested that Allen's struggles could lead to his replacement by Tim Seifert, further indicating the need for KKR to reassess their batting strategy as they navigate through a challenging season.
