August 18, 2024, marked a year of Indian cricketer, Rinku Singh, being involved with the Men in Blue. It was the same date last year when Rinku was deservedly granted his first India cap while the Indian team toured Ireland for a three-match T20I series.

The 26-year-old batter took to Instagram and shared a couple of delighful pictures in which he could be seen smiling beamingly with the cap in his hand, as well as a picture of Bumrah handing it over with the camp being all smiles for the Aligarh-born. Rinku had to endure a challenging time up until getting selected for the 15-member squad for the Ireland tour, which the Indians managed to win by a 2-0 margin with the third game getting abandoned due to incessant rain.
