Former India`s pacer Ashish Nehra feels that Rinku Singh who has been a consistent performer for `Men in Blue` in T20Is against Australia has emerged as a "contender" for the finisher`s spot in India`s T20 World Cup squad. With this, Nehra also believes that Rinku needs to face severe challenges for the position from other cricketers.

The T20 World Cup will be played in the West Indies and the USA in June next year. In the fourth T20I against Australia. Rinku Singh missed his well-deserved fifty by just four runs. He played a knock of 46 runs in just 29 deliveries including 4 fours and 2 sixes.
