Watch: Rinku Singh shows-off God's Plan Tattoo after half century

In the second Twenty20 International of their current three-game series against Bangladesh, Team India performed admirably. On September 9, the teams squared off at the Arun Jaitley Stadium. After losing the toss, team India elected to bat first to start the match. 

The innings fit into the middle-order category. Sanju Samson and Abhishek Sharma scored ten and fifteen runs in the first innings, respectively, followed by Suryakumar Yadav's eight runs before the exhausting walk back. But the Men in Blue were most notable for their knocks from Nitish Kumar Reddy and Rinku Singh.

Rinku Singh's amazing celebration:

In 34 deliveries, Reddy scored 74 runs, while Rinku Singh added 53 runs in the next over. The fans were captivated by Rinku's joy. Shortly after turning fifty, the 26-year-old pointed to his recently acquired "God's Plan" tattoo. The identical video clip has been widely shared on social media. 

In addition to Rinku Singh and Nitish Kumar Reddy, Hardik Pandya also made an impression with his knock. Following Nitish Reddy's dismissal, the star all-rounder came into the batting and quickly amassed 32 runs in 19 deliveries. In addition, India scored 221 runs in the game's first innings thanks to 15 runs added by Riyan Parag. 

With three wickets in the first innings, Bangladesh's Rishad Hossain was the leading wicket-taker. Additionally, Taskin Ahmed, Tanzim Hasan Sakib, and Mustafizur Rahman each claimed two wickets. 

Bangladesh has to win by 222 runs as the second innings draws near in order to tie the series. India had already won the first Twenty20 International in Gwalior, thus if the visitors are unable to win the game and chase down the target, they will lose the series.
