After playing a breakthrough knock of 66 runs against Delhi Capitals on Saturday, wicketkeeper-batter Dinesh Karthik said that he is trying his best to be a part of the Indian team.
“I have been working really hard. I have been trying to do everything to be a part of the Indian team. Depends on the bowler, whoever is bowling well. I respected Kuldeep as he was bowling well. When you are batting at the death, you try and get under the ball more while hitting. You make me sound like a serial killer (laughs when asked as to how was he so calm and hit them so hard at the same time),” said Karthik in a post-match presentation.
“I must admit positions and calmness comes from preparations. Apart from that staying in the moment sounds cliched but it works. He (Shahbaz) is a very special player, I am very sure he is going to do special things. He can hit a ball a long long way. And he backs himself which I like about him,” he added.
Dinesh Karthik had last played for India against Australia in February 2019. He has represented India in 39 T20Is with 399 runs at an average of 33.
