'He is better than a finisher' -  Harsha Bhogle after KKR batter's heroics against CSK

Following his emphatic knock, cricket commentator and pundit Harsha Bhogle made a very critical comment about the innings. 
 

During the ongoing fixture between Kolkata Knight Riders (KRR) and Chennai Super Kings (CSK), Rinku Singh once again gave a testament of his prowess and mettle with a quickfire knock of 54 runs to propel KKR to a crucial win. Following his emphatic knock, cricket commentator and pundit Harsha Bhogle made a very critical comment about the innings. 

While he is evolved into one of the best finishers in this format, Harsha Bhogle opined Rinku Singh is more than what meets the eye. His shots at display proves he has the skillset to pitch in with the bat with more meaningful contributions. 

Talking about the match, chasing a target of 145 runs in 20 overs seemed too big for the KKR openers -- Jason Roy (12), Rahmanullah Gurbaz (1) and Venkatesh Iyer (9), as all were dismissed by Deepal Chahar in the fifth, first and third over.

However, skipper Nitish Rana (57*) and Rinku Singh (54) set up an important partnership. In the 18th over, Singh was runout by CSK's Moeen Ali.

But after Andre Russel's entry, KKR finisshed the match in 18.3 overs and kept alive its hope to face playoffs.

For CSK, Deepak Chahar took 3 wickets.
