13 IPL franchises and the highest individual score by their wicket-keepers in IPL history

#11 Gujarat Lions - Dinesh Karthik 65 (34) vs Delhi Daredevils in 2017

Dinesh Karthik's 65 helped the Rajkot franchise post a mammoth 208 on the board

After Brendon McCullum and Dwayne Smith lost their wickets cheaply, skipper Suresh Raina and wicket-keeper batsman Dinesh Karthik tried to rebuild the Gujarat Lions innings against Delhi. The two Indian stars destroyed the Daredevils bowling attack on a flat Kotla track as both brought up their respective half-centuries in their 133 run partnership. While Raina scored 77 off 43, Dinesh Karthik slammed 65 runs from 34 balls to help the Lions set Delhi a target of 209.

However, a poor bowling performance by the inexperienced GL bowlers helped Sanju Samson and Rishabh Pant pull off a record chase for their team. Eventually, DD won the match by 7 wickets with 15 balls to spare. Karthik amassed 361 runs for the Lions in 14 matches during the 2017 edition of IPL.
