Batting at number five, the 28-year-old walked in under pressure. He then turned the game on its head with fearless stroke play. Rinku scored an unbeaten 106 runs off just 60 balls. His innings included 11 crisp fours and four towering sixes.

The highlight of the knock was his century off only 56 balls. He maintained an explosive strike rate of 176.67. Chandigarh bowlers struggled to contain his aggressive approach. Rinku showed no hesitation in attacking both pace and spin.

This was not an isolated effort. In the previous Vijay Hazare Trophy match, Rinku impressed against Hyderabad. He scored 67 runs off 48 balls with six fours and two sixes. His consistency has boosted Uttar Pradesh’s middle order significantly.

Rinku’s leadership and form have come at the right time. The innings strengthened Uttar Pradesh’s total and shifted momentum firmly in their favour. Fans and selectors took note of his clean hitting and calm presence.
