KKR vs LSG Highlights, IPL 2023
Rinku Singh denied a double on the third ball of the final over. It is irrelevant now to say that maybe he would have not hit a six or a four like the way he did. But the main thing is the chase demands doubles to be taken if the right batter is at the crease after those two runs. It reduces the target and keeps the main man on strike. But Rinku declined that and in the end, it went on to be the most crucial part of the innings.
