Sunrisers Hyderabad is the team that has taken T20 cricket to another level. On that day they roasted Mumbai Indians and scored 277 runs. Dinesh Karthik of RCB lit several Karthik lamps at the Chinnaswamy Stadium yesterday as the Sixers were drenched in rain and scored 287 runs.

Dinesh Karthik scored 83 runs off 35 balls and hit 5 fours and 7 sixes in it. Dinesh Karthik said he is no match for Sunrisers’ Travis Head, Henrik Claussen or Abhishek Sharma. Dinesh Karthik is now the new AB de Villiers for IPL fans who have seen the 360-degree player AB de Villiers for many years.

Dinesh is really the one to pick for T20 World Cup. Because Rishabh Pant has just arrived and by then give him high pressure games and if he fails his mentality will show, so we can protect him as a Test match treasure and give Dinesh Karthik another chance in T20 World Cup.

Because it takes place in the May Islands, the pitches are almost like Indian pitches. Australian pitches were not Dinesh Karthik’s favorite last time.

Apart from Kohli’s selfish innings in RCB team in the current IPL series, Dinesh Karthik’s innings is a step above Kohli’s. That means he is the only one in RCB who can play according to today’s T20 requirements.

223 runs in 17 matches in 2021 IPL series, 330 runs in 16 matches in 2022. 2023 Not out 140 in 13 matches. 2024- 226 runs in 7 matches so far. That too was 110 balls with a strike rate of 205.45.

Top 10 players in current IPL: Kohli 361 runs, Ryan Barrack 284 runs, Sanju Samson 264 runs, Rohit Sharma 261 runs, Gill 255 runs, Clausen 253 runs, Shivam Dubey 242, Travis Head 235, Fab du Plessis 232 , Dinesh Karthik 226.

What is special about this is that Dinesh Karthik’s strike rate of 205.45 is number one among the top 10 players. Virat Kohli’s strike rate is only 147 despite having facilities like power play at the top. Wild King Travis Head has a strike rate of 199. Dinesh Karthik has a strike rate that can eat up all such big hitters.

In fact, Dinesh Karthik’s strike rate is more than the strike rate of the top 20 players who have scored the most runs in the current IPL series, so he is number one in the top 20.

But very few people celebrate Dinesh Karthik. If we want to give an analogy to the trend of mass cinema, Rajini is the one who gained fan base by keeping his hair aside and holding his cigarette while Kamal Haasan is the one who attracted the fan base by showing his talent in many difficult roles in many roles.

So an inappropriate but interesting analogy is Dhoni to Rajini to Dinesh Karthik to Kamal Haasan. Even though Dinesh Mangu Mangu Mangu played amazing innings, Dinesh Karthik is not talked about as much as Dhoni’s 3 sixes.
