In a thrilling IPL 2026 match, Rinku Singh's remarkable performance helped the Kolkata Knight Riders (KKR) secure a narrow victory over the Lucknow Super Giants (LSG). Rinku scored an impressive 83 not out off 51 balls, including four consecutive sixes in the final over, leading KKR to a total of 155 runs after being in dire straits at 93/7. His contributions didn’t stop there; he also showcased his fielding prowess by taking five catches. The match concluded dramatically in a Super Over, with KKR successfully chasing down LSG's target after Sunil Narine bowled brilliantly, conceding just one run and taking two wickets. Rinku's performance earned him praise, and during the post-match presentation, he was humorously suggested to be called 'Rinku Sankatmochan' for his ability to perform under pressure, to which he replied that 'Rinku is fine.' This win marked LSG's fifth consecutive loss, highlighting their struggles in the tournament.
