Performance is fading in IPL 2024

In the current tournament for KKR, he has scored only 123 runs in 9 innings at a strike rate of 150.

Shivam Dubey has got a chance

The selectors have selected Shivam Dubey in place of Rinku Singh for the T20 World Cup 2024. Who has impressed everyone with his game in the current season.
