April 9, 2023.. Whoever forgets this day, two cricketers will never forget it in their lifetime. Yash Dayal is one of them. Another is Rinku Singh. April was a nightmare for Dayal, but it was an unforgettable day for Rinku. Because in the match between Gujarat Titans vs KKR, Rinku Singh hit 5 massive sixes in the last over of Yash Dayal to give KKR a hard-fought victory.

After that, Rinku Singh’s name became famous. Hailing from Uttar Pradesh, Rinku Singh comes from a poor family. Despite his great talent, he overcame the toughest challenges and became a popular player.

But Rinku Singh did not forget the path he walked. It was a big challenge for his father, who was an LPG gas distributor, to finance his son’s cricket practice. Anna is an autorickshaw driver. Another brother works as a cleaning crew. Despite their support, Rinku Singh struggled with financial difficulties.

Rinku Singh has come forward to help poor budding cricketers who are facing financial difficulties like him. But after gaining fame, he started an ambitious project.

Accordingly, he is now working with his childhood coach to build a hostel for poor cricketers. The work of the hostel is already almost completed and the inauguration ceremony will be held next month.

Rinku Singh is building hostels at the Aligarh Cricket School and Academy run by coach Masooduj-Zafar Amini, who helped him in his childhood. The construction work which started three months ago has now reached its final stage.

This hostel has 14 rooms. Each room accommodates four people. Also a shed, pavilion and separate toilets were constructed. Apart from this, a canteen has been set up in the hostel itself. Rs. Coach Masooduz-Zaffar Amini said that it will cost 50 lakhs and Rinku Singh is bearing the entire cost.

This time, Rinku Singh, who is getting a total remuneration of Rs.55 lakhs through IPL, donated Rs.50 lakhs to a poor budding cricketer from Tannur. With this, the name of Sixer King Rinku Singh is becoming famous.
