The 32-year-old keeper batsman kept his cool and scored an unbeaten 29 off 8 balls to guide India to victory from an improbable position. With five runs required to win off the final delivery, a composed Karthik smashed a six and guided India to victory.
The innings against Bangladesh is probably the innings which will help him get back in the reckoning in the Indian team.
