The Chat With Mahi Bhai Was Really Productive – Rinku Singh
In an interview with RevSportz, Rinku Singh revealed his conversation with MS Dhoni during the IPL 2023.
“The chat with Mahi bhai (MS Dhoni) was really productive. He has also batted in similar numbers as I do – at 5 or 6 – and he has done it for the majority of his career, and knows the position in and out,” Rinku told RevSportz.
“I simply asked him how to better my game, and his advice was very simple: “Bohot sahi batting kar raha hai, jo tu kar raha hai, wahi karta reh (You are batting really well. Continue whatever you have done so far),” he added.
