“Shreyas has been magnificent throughout the series. One of the toughest challenges in a Test match is in the fourth innings, when you are chasing down a score against all odds. Shreyas Iyer has again shown how good he is,” said Karthik.

He further said that this innings should not be forgotten on occasions when the right-hander does not score runs in a few games.

“We should never forget these kinds of facts when we discuss about him in the near future. When he gets out a couple of times, we say he should not be a part of the Test team because others outside look really good,” Karthik added.

Karthik further praised Iyer’s maturity saying that he looked calm and composed adding that he always delivers when the team is under pressure.

“It was a calm and composed knock, giving no chances. He was making sure he was consistently taking those singles. The moment the field was up, he knew there was an opportunity and he pounced on it. The guy under pressure constantly delivers,” said Karthik.

Speaking about Dinesh Karthik, he last played for India in the T20 World Cup in Australia. He will next be seen in IPL 2023 for RCB after being retained by the franchise.
