Rinku Singh has had a dismal outing in the eighteenth season of the Indian Premier League (IPL). The star batter failed to contribute and finish games for the three-time champions, and many believe that, courtesy of his performances, he might end up losing his place in the Indian T20I team too. Rinku Singh is not only an important member of the Kolkata Knight Riders but also a core player for the Indian T20I team that is led by Suryakumar Yadav.
Reports: Many unconfirmed reports claim that the India and KKR youngster Rinku Singh is all set to get married to Samajwadi Party MP Priya Saroj. The star India batter and the Samajwadi Party MP are rumored to tie the knot in Varanasi. The rumors of Rinku and Saroj's marriage started surfacing earlier this year when Tufani Saroj, Priya's father, who is also an SP MLA, confirmed that his and Rinku's families had been discussing the marriage of their children.

Rumor mills state that the Hotel Taj in Varanasi will be the destination where Rinku and Priya Saroj will get married.

The star finisher played 13 matches for the defending champions (KKR) in IPL 2025 and could score only 206 runs. The southpaw averaged only 29.42 and scored runs with a strike rate of 153.73. The Kolkata Knight Riders needed someone from their combination of Andre Russell, Rinku Singh, and Ramandeep Singh to fire, but sadly none of them could get going and light up the eighteenth edition of the Indian Premier League.
