Rinku Singh was not picked for India's 15-man team for the T20 World Cup 2024. The southpaw's omission surprised many, but India's head coach Rahul Dravid explained that the move was carried out to distribute the team. Rinku is a member of the travelling reserves, which includes Shubman Gill, Khaleel Ahmed and Avesh Khan. Team India will begin with a warm-up match on July 1 and then on to play in a group stage encounter against Ireland on June 4, 2024.
