Royal Challengers Bangalore’s wicketkeeper-batsman, Dinesh Kartik has been phenomenal in the current season of Indian Premiere League. DK has played the role of a finisher really well for RCB and is aiming to make a comeback in the Indian Cricket Team.
Ever since MS Dhoni retired, the Indian team has been missing a player to fulfil the role of a finisher. The team management has tried several combinations but hasn’t found the perfect replacement. But seems like Dinesh Kartik would be the on to fill in the shoes of a finisher for Indian team in the upcoming T20 World Cup.
Karthik came into IPL 2022 having not played any international cricket for almost three years. The man was bust doing regular commentary for a number of international series. But, with his return in RCB, his performances as a finisher, has led to calls for him for the Indian squad. There are strong chances that DK can be included in the Indian team for the T20 World Cup this year.
Today Dinesh Karthik smashed 30 off just eight balls. Moreover, 22 of which came in a single over. This can be the leading to calls for the Indian team for the T20 World Cup 2022. His strike rate has been amazing and has been mostly not out during the tournament.
Several former players like Harbhajan Singh, Irfan Pathan, Michael Vaughan and many others have already been rooting for DK to be included in the Indian team for the T20 World Cup 2022.
Dinesh Karthik himself admitted that he intends to make a comeback in the Indian team. While talking to the former skipper Virat Kohli, DK said, “I know there is a (T20) World Cup around the corner. And I want to be part of that World Cup squad desperately and help India cross that line.”
