Dinesh Karthik had been the most obvious choice for the national team’s wicket-keeper’s slot until MS Dhoni’s inclusion closed the door for him. In spite of this, he has successfully managed to grab the opportunities to claw his way back to the team permanently.

The veteran has enough experience in T20 cricket and is one of the most consistent middle-order batsmen in the IPL. He has been part of 168 IPL fixtures, notching up more than 3000 runs. He was installed as the captain of the Kolkata Knight Riders in their previous season and flourished both as the batsman and the wicketkeeper of the side. He also thrived in his first season as the skipper, leading the team to the playoffs.

Having Karthik in the side can be more than an asset as the 33-year old adds a lot of muscle and teeth in the middle order. His presence in the line-up ensures dependability to steer the ship by rotating the strike as well as up the ante in the death overs.
