SA vs IND, 4th T20I: Focus on Rinku’s form and batting position as India eyes series win

The Hindu  

Rinku Singh’s batting slot and circumspect approach must be a cause of concern for the India team going into the deciding fourth T20I against South Africa as the side aims for another bilateral series victory here on Friday. Centuries by Sanju Samson and Tilak Varma on either side of an inept batting performance have kept India’s nose ahead in the series and team would want a more collective batting effort to clinch it 3-1. Even during the previous T20I series a year back, skipper Suryakumar Yadav’s last international hundred to date came at this very stadium and that too in a winning cause. Most of Rinku’s better efforts have come when he has batted at number five but in a line-up where Sanju Samson is settling as an opener and Tilak Varma has staked claim as a No.
