Rinku Singh is part of the Indian cricket team. His father, Khanchand Singh, passed away after a prolonged illness. He was battling advanced-stage liver cancer and was on ventilator support for a few days. But he rejoined the squad in Chennai for the match against Zimbabwe.
Rinku was born on October 12, 1997, in Uttar Pradesh. He grew up in a tight-knit but cash-strapped family. His father worked as an LPG cylinder delivery man in Aligarh. The job had endless hours and low pay. The family lived in a simple two-room flat given by the gas company where his father worked.
His father was practical at first and pushed Rinku towards studies over cricket. His mother, Bina Devi, offered her quiet strength during tough times. He then paid his parents back for their sacrifices. He bought them a new home and named it after his mother.
Rinku is the third of five siblings. He has older brothers Sonu and Mukul, younger ones Jeetu and Sheelu, and a sister named Neha. They all chipped in over the years. One brother drove an auto-rickshaw, while others juggled private jobs to keep the family afloat. Neha has carved her own path with education. Rinku has kept everyone close despite his fame. His family pictures on social media show that he is still that grounded Aligarh boy at heart.
