LSG vs RCB: "His Clarity, Thought Process Is Very Good" - Ravi Shastri Lauds Dinesh Karthik's Finishing Skills In IPL 2022

While many of the senior Indian players have struggled in this IPL, Dinesh Karthik has been hitting the ball sweetly. He has been at the top of his game and has already scored 210 runs from seven matches in IPL 2022 so far. Karthik has already hit 15 sixes and notched up a half-century as well. He scored an unbeaten 66 against Delhi Capitals, his highest score so far.

Former Indian head coach Ravi Shastri has been closely following Dinesh Karthik’s game and has been hugely impressed so far. Shastri feels that this is the best DK has looked in a long time given how and where in the field he is hitting the balls in the final overs.

“He is doing what he loves to do. The positions he is getting into… if you see the way he is batting, he is literally picking his spot. And he’s getting into great positions to play the shots. He is moving early. He is anticipating what the bowler is doing and what he is doing extremely well this year is that the anticipation is coming out to be dead right 99 percent of the time. That makes a difference. You are outsmarting the bowler when you are one step ahead of him,” Shastri said on the Byju’s Cricket Live Show.

Shastri further said that Dinesh Karthik has a lot of clarity in the way he is playing his game at the moment. He also felt that Karthik is hungrier than ever before to make a mark in the season and get a place in India’s T20 World Cup squad in Australia later this year.

“The clarity, the thought process is very good and positive and it’s making all the difference in the world. He has all the experience in the world. He has been around for a long. He is fit and it’s great to see that the hunger is still there. He is playing for a new franchise and the responsibility has been given to him clear cut. He knows his job. One thing I must say is that at his age, he picks up length better than most players younger than him, especially the short ball. He is having a ball. An absolute ball of a time” mentioned the former Indian head coach.

As far as the points table is concerned RCB is placed second with 10 points from seven games.
