In three games hitherto of Indian Premier League 2022, Dinesh Karthik, the finisher, has manufactured knocks of 32* (14), 14* (7) and 44* (23) at an awesome strike-rate of 204.54. It’s given RCB two wins from three, and they are holding the exact same point as the table-topping Rajasthan Royals with Glenn Maxwell yet to feature in this edition of the cash-rich league.

I think I made a conscious effort this year to do justice to myself because the last year, I felt I could have done better. The way I trained was much better this time around. Credit to the person who trained with me. I’m making a conscious effort to tell myself that I’m not done yet – Dinesh Karthik said after the match.
