"I Am 100% Ready..." - Dinesh Karthik Opens Up On Playing For India In T20 World Cup 2024

Veteran keeper-batter Dinesh Karthik has been doing really well in the IPL lately, showing off his ability to hit the ball all around the field and score big runs quickly. People are excited about how he’s been playing because it’s making them think he might have a good shot at being picked for India’s T20 World Cup team, even though he’s 38 years old.

Rohit Sharma on DK’s Chances Of Playing In World Cup

Indian captain Rohit Sharma has also chimed in, saying that convincing Dinesh Karthik to play for India in the T20 World Cup would be a straightforward task. Speaking to former England captain Michael Vaughan and former Australia batsman Adam Gilchrist on the Club Prairie Fir podcast, Rohit said:

“Quite impressed, watching DK bat a couple of nights back, and Dhoni as well, came to play four balls, made a huge impact, that was the difference. It will be hard to convince MS although he is coming to the US, to do something else. He is into golf now. DK will be easier to convince I guess,”

Karthik has been performing really well for RCB too. In 7 matches this season, he has scored 226 runs with an amazing strike rate of 205.45 and a great average of 75.33.

In his latest match against Sunrisers Hyderabad, Karthik played a brilliant innings, scoring 83 runs off just 35 balls. Although RCB didn’t win the match, his innings helped them put up a strong fight by reaching a total of 262 runs in their 20 overs, falling short of the target by only 25 runs.

Meanwhile, Dinesh Karthik has also opened up about representing the Indian cricket team in the upcoming T20 World Cup 2024. PTI quoted DK saying that he is 100% ready to play for the World Cup and he will do anything to be on that flight with the team.

“At this stage in my life, it would be the greatest feeling to represent India – I am 100% ready. I will do everything I can to be on that flight to the T20 WC”. 

He added: “I also feel there are three very honest, stable people at the helm who will decide what the best team for India will be at the World Cup- Rohit Sharma, Ajit Agarkar and Rahul Dravid. I am completely with them and I respect any decision they take. All I can say I am 100% ready and I’ll do whatever I can to be on that flight of the T20 World Cup,”

DK received mixed reactions from the Indian fans to his statement. Check reactions in the reactions below:
