Dinesh Karthik 1st T20 Masterclass: Karthik has over the last couple of years developed a reputation as a finisher but only got noticed after a fine IPL 2022 season with the Royal Challengers Bangalore. He finished with the best strike rate in the tournament and was recalled into the India side.
Since his return, he has time and again chipped in with cameos when given the chance and Friday was no different for the 36-year-old. Karthik aims to play the t20 World Cup and is in the team management’s plans but a severe competition of places means that it would be a tough call to make.
The RCB star meanwhile is making every opportunity count adding to head coach Rahul Dravid and the selection committee’s problems.
