India cricketer Rinku Singh has rushed back home from the ICC Men’s T20 World Cup camp after his father’s health deteriorated, sources have said. According to information available, Rinku’s father is suffering from stage-4 liver cancer and is currently on ventilator support. The batter left the team environment to be with his family during the critical time.
Rinku is part of the India national cricket team squad for the tournament, but there is no clarity yet on whether he will return to rejoin the team. The situation is being closely monitored by the team management.
The left-handed batter has become an important member of India’s white-ball setup in recent years, particularly valued for his finishing ability in pressure situations. Any extended absence could impact India’s team combination during the latter stages of the tournament.
For now, the focus remains on his family situation, with the cricketing fraternity expected to rally around the player during this difficult period. An official update from the team management is awaited.
