Royal Challengers Bengaluru's keeper-batter, Dinesh Karthik, has been in the limelight recently for his innings against the Sunrisers Hyderabad (SRH), where he scored 83 runs off 35 balls at a strike rate of 237.14. That was indeed one of the best performances of IPL 2024, and it gained a lot of appreciation. Since Karthik is in red-hot form, speculations regarding his T20 selection are going around. 

"There is nothing bigger in my life other than representing India in this T-20 World Cup. I also feel three very, very stable, honest people are at their helm to decide what should be the best Indian team for the World Cup. Rahul Dravid, Rohit Sharma, and Ajit Agarkar. And I'm completely with them. I respect any decision that they take," said Dinesh Karthik.

As a finisher, considering the form, Karthik will be a brilliant choice for India for the T20 World Cup 2024. However, it will entirely depend upon the selectors regarding how they want the team's combinations to be. 

'It's been thoroughly enjoyable to do what I'm doing for RCB as a finisher...' - Dinesh Kathik's confident about his role as finisher

Dinesh Karthik revealed his finishing techniques in RCB and how he loves to be the finisher whenever possible. As a middle-order batter, it's a dream to finish the innings in style, and Karthik has made the most out of it. He's arguably the best finisher in the team and will be hoping to find a place in the World Cup squad. 

"So I worked like that, and I worked backwards, and that's helped me, you know, really learn a couple of shots more, you know, at the back end. It's been great to go out there and express myself, and it's been thoroughly enjoyable to do what I'm doing for RCB as a finisher," said Dinesh Karthik.
