Much like the 2013 edition, Karthik landed a surprise recall back into the Indian team for the 2017 Champions Trophy after he had a decent outing for the Gujarat Lions in the Indian Premier League, where he scored 361 runs in 14 matches.

However, he could not make a spot for himself in the playing XI, since the Indian team decided to stick with Yuvraj Singh at number 4, but the selectors had given enough indications that the veteran remained very much part of their plans.

He was given a game when India toured West Indies immediately after the tournament and responded with knocks of 2 and 50* in the two innings.
