Rinku Singh: Well, today in this news we are going to tell you about two such incidents, when famous Bollywood actors were not happy with the selection of Team India. After the announcement of the Indian cricket team for premium tournaments, these actors shared their views. So let us tell you about these two incidents:
1 Rinku Singh: When Bollywood King Shahrukh Khan was unhappy with Rinku Singh not being selected in the team
It is worth noting that when the BCCI announced the Indian cricket team for the ICC T20 World Cup 2024, Rinku Singh was not selected in that team. Rinku had earlier performed remarkably in IPL and international cricket. But when Rinku did not get a place in the T20 World Cup team even after this performance, Shah Rukh Khan, the co-owner of IPL team KKR, put forth his side.
After not getting selected in Team India for the T20 World Cup, Shah Rukh Khan emerged as a strong supporter of Rinku and ensured that this young talent got support during this challenging phase of his career. Taking an encouraging step, King Khan accompanied Rinku to Mumbai and gave him moral support and encouragement. This incident made a lot of headlines in the media at that time.
2 Varun Dhawan’s reaction on Shreyas Iyer’s selection
It is worth noting that on August 19, BCCI has announced the 15-member team led by Suryakumar Yadav for the 17th season of the Asia Cup. However, Shreyas, who has performed brilliantly in India and IPL in the recent past, did not get a place in this team.
At the same time, recently Bollywood actor Varun Dhawan openly supported Iyer by sharing several old videos on his Instagram account. In these videos, Iyer was seen reflecting on his past neglects, emphasizing on his journey and determination.
Iyer not being selected for Asia Cup 2025 was also disappointing for many cricket fans. After leading KKR to the IPL 2024 title, Iyer led Punjab Kings to the final of IPL 2025. However, cricket fans did not like Iyer’s failure to make it to the team even after such a remarkable performance.
