The domestic juggernaut opines that the No 4 conundrum was blown out of proportion.
Some of these players find themselves as second-choice backups, a few got the call up after their respective teammates were ruled out due to injuries and for a couple, this might be the last World Cup.
Dinesh Karthik has three scores in excess of 90 in eight innings in warm-up matches of ICC ODI events.
A few players made the cut to the showpiece event on the basis of their ODI experience despite not playing for the national team in the recent past.
The 33-year old Tamil Nadu batsman adds solidity while being able to accelerate the innings when he needs to.
The Indian chief selector MSK Prasad has also been vocal about the reasons why Karthik was selected ahead of anyone else.
Rohit was delighted to finish at the top of the table.
It was the game bowlers ensured Mumbai won and in such amazing manner.
The pacer who was playing just his second match of the season for KKR sported bowling figures of 2/31 and was the pick amongst the bowlers.
Karthik also explained the reason for the same later.
