Dinesh Karthik is currently in England, providing his services as a commentator in The Hundred. Prior to this stint, Karthik also operated as a commentator for the World Test Championship (WTC) final.

After fulfilling this assignment with the Hundred, Dinesh Karthik will most likely begin his preparations for the second phase of the IPL, which will take place in the UAE from September to October.


It's not the quantity of balls but the amount of impact I create each time I walk in: Dinesh Karthik

Dinesh Karthik has been out of contention for Indian team selection since the 2019 World Cup in England. But he is still hopeful of making a comeback and taking part in at least one of the upcoming World Cup tournaments.

Dinesh Karthik, a while back, in an exclusive interview with Sportskeeda, explained his strategy and thought process while batting lower down the order.

"Before, there was a lot of confusion while selecting players across formats. But now, there's a lot of streamlining, with Test professionals and shorter-format professionals. The current set of selectors will look at who can play in which position, and they will realize that you can't put up scores of 75-80 while batting lower down. But you can score 20 off 8 balls, and 23 runs off 10 balls. This is what I've focused a lot on.
"It's not the quantity of balls but the amount of impact I create each time I walk in. That's one of the reasons why I'm confident this is something the Indian team will definitely want. I gave a sample size to them the last time I played. I'm very confident that if they pick me, I can showcase my skills and India will have a great chance at the World Cup again."
