IND vs SA: Why didn't Rinku Singh get a chance..!?

The indian team is playing the first ODI against south africa in johannesburg today. The playing eleven for this match has been announced. The absence of the much-awaited left-handed batsman Rinku Singh from the playing XI has left the fans disappointed. Rinku Singh is holding the belt in t20 cricket. He made the most of his opportunity. At this stage, india is struggling without a proper finisher in the ODIs.
Suryakumar was also used as a finisher in the world cup series. But he does not know how to play cleanly in ODI cricket and in this situation, the fans expected that Rinku Singh, who was mixed in t20, should be used in that place in ODI cricket. As a result, Rinku Singh was not given a chance in today's game, which disappointed the fans. In this case, there seems to be a reason behind it. As Shreyas has not played in the t20 series, he has been given priority in ODI cricket. And the role of part-time bowlers is very important on South African soil. Because players like Aiden Markaram make a big impact on the South African pitches. The indian team did not have a large number of batsmen who knew how to bowl before. But now Sai Sudarsan and Thilak varma are spinning. Thus, these two have been given priority to use as part-time bowlers. Similarly, it has been announced that Shreyas will not play in the next two matches to prepare for the Test series. Thus, it seems that Rajat Pattidar or Rinku Singh may return to the team in place of Shreyas. Dravid has now kept Ringu Singh out as a part-time bowler.
