Watch: Rinku Singh played an elegant “Helicopter Shot” in 4th Ind vs Eng T20I

Rinku Singh once again displayed his brilliant batting in the 4th India vs England T20I match being played Maharashtra Cricket Association Stadium in Pune as India looks to seal the series with a 3rd win.

Team India began the series with 2 back-to-back wins followed by an unfortunate defeat in the 3rd T20I, making it 2-1 in the 5 match T20I series. The 4th T20I is being played in Pune where India will hope to seal the series with a win while England is looking to level the series.

It was England captain Jos Buttler who won the toss and opted to bowl first. And their decision was proved quite right by the England bowlers. Saqib Mahmood playing his first match of the series, picked 3 wickets in the same over, getting the wicket of Sanju Samson, Tilak Varma and captain Suryakumar Yadav.

That left team India in a bit of a trouble. But Rinku Singh who is making his return to team after ruled out for previous 2 matches due to injury, joined Abhishek Sharma to form a partnership.

While many expected the duo to play conservative cricket, but it was in-fact quite opposite as the batters took on the bowlers. During this moment, we saw star India batter Rinku Singh play an elegant Helicopter Shot, giving flashback of former India captain MS Dhoni.

It was in the final over of the powerplay when Rinku did so. Rinku pulled a short to the off side and his wrist work was so good that it turned into one of the most elegant Helicopter Shot ever. Watch the video below.

Ind vs Eng T20 series

The India vs England T20I series is a hugely important series as both the team prepares for the 2026 T20 World Cup to be played in India. India is the defending champion having won the 2024 edition but they will now take the field without top players like Rohit Sharma and Virat Kohli.

The 5 match series between India and England began with India dominating in the first 2 matches of the series played in Kolkata and Chennai respectively. But the Suryakumar Yadav led side lost the 3rd T20I in Rajkot, making it 2-1 scoreline after first 3 matches.

The 4th T20I is currently being played in Pune with the 5th and final (potentially a series decider) match of the series to be played in Mumbai on 2nd February.
