The toughest bowler faces
When asked about the toughest bowler of his career so far, Link didn’t hesitate before naming India’s speed spearhead, Jasprit Bumrah. The left-handed batter admits Boomra’s excellent ability to deceive the batsman with his unique moves and changes.
“It seems tough, but Bumrah Bhai is a really strong guy. I mean, can anyone play well? If you do that, you still make some moves. In the same move, he bowls slowly, in the same move, he hits the bouncer down. So, it’s really tough. His arms are tough. Rinku side.
Rinku explains Bumrah’s unorthodox moves and a variety of delivery, including deceptive slower balls and clumsy bouncers, making it difficult for batsmen to read him. He admits that Bumrah’s ability to provide multiple variations from the same action makes him a nightmare for any batsman as it becomes even more tricky for his timing and execution.
A burning problem with Sunil Narine
Rinku shared the locker room with some of the T20 cricket celebrities, and he also talked about his curiosity about KKR teammate Sunil Narine. When asked a question he wanted to ask the mysterious West Indian spinner, Rinku asked a rather interesting and visceral inquiry.
“Yes, I just want to ask why he looked unhappy when he got a wicket. He didn’t even smile. I just want to ask, that’s all.” The 27-year-old added.
Although Narine is one of the deadliest spinners in T20 cricket, he is known for his calm manners and rarely shows emotion on the court. Rinku found it fascinating that even after taking the key wicket, Narine would not celebrate in the traditional way. The KKR batsman expressed his curiosity about whether Narine was excited internally or whether he had a unique way of dealing with success on the field.

Andre Russell, another big name in the KKR lineup, is known for his incredible six-double ability and brute force. When asked about the questions he would ask Russell, Link replied that he wouldn’t necessarily ask him anything, but rather wanted to learn the art of hitting a large number of six people.
“I won’t ask any questions, just I want to learn a little from him. He hit six people for a long time, so I just want to learn that from him.” Explosive left-handed batsman said.
Rinku himself won the game with his ability to finish, and he admitted that Russell is one of the best batsmen in cricket in the world.
