In the form of his life, seasoned wicketkeeper-batter Dinesh Karthik on Saturday (April 16) said that he has been ”trying everything” to stage a comeback into the Indian team.
Karthik, 36, who began his journey in international cricket way back in 2004, has not put a foot wrong in the ongoing IPL 2022, playing some of the finest knocks for his franchise Royal Challengers Bangalore, who spent on Rs 5.5 crore on him in the auction.
He stretched his excellent run of form with a blistering 34-ball 66, paving the way for RCB’s 16-run win over Delhi Capitals.
‘I must admit that I have a bigger goal. I have been working really hard. My aim is to do something special for the country. This is part of my journey. I have been trying everything to be a part of the Indian team,” Player of the Match Karthik said at the presentation ceremony.
With his exceptional batting, Karthik has filled the void created by the departure of the great AB de Villiers in the RCB set up.
