Dinesh Karthik, you can’t get a better name to promote cricket, transitioning from a top-order batter to a finisher. Even when not playing as a wicketkeeper, he was always ready to contribute as a fielder. Whether playing for India or in the IPL, he stood right on top. Now retired from all forms of cricket, it is clear that we are not going to see him in action doing his perfect finisher job for RCB, where he played 60 matches, scored 937 runs at an average of 24.65, and had a strike rate of 162.95. Although he is going to be with the camp, surprisingly, he will be in a new role.
Dinesh Karthik in IPL 2025
Dinesh Karthik has been appointed as RCB’s new batting coach and mentor. Karthik is all set to take on a new role in a fresh association with the Royal Challengers Bangalore, who have appointed the seasoned wicketkeeper-batter as their batting coach and mentor ahead of IPL 2025. Karthik, who has played for five franchises in his IPL career, including Kolkata Knight Riders, where he captained the team and helped them reach the playoffs, as well as Mumbai Indians, Delhi Daredevils, Kings XI Punjab, and then RCB, will be an interesting addition to the team. It will be intriguing to see how things go for him this time around.
