Over the years, Rajmani developed a reputation not just for his bowling prowess but also for his adaptable batting style. While primarily a bowler, his middle-order batting has snatched victories from the jaws of defeat on more than one occasion. His ability to shift gears, be it defensive stands or aggressive counter-attacks, adds a valuable edge to his role in the team.

Singh's rivalry with Maharashtra’s Pradeep Gawli—a dynamic batsman—has been a source of much excitement and spectacle, symbolising the classic bowler-batsman face-off that cricket so dearly cherishes.
