@@sarthakpandey4650 Dinesh Karthik has scored well in England test tour 2007 and then he dropped from test team for Australia overseas test series for no reason inspite of good form and then how come he can make a come back. Look at Rohit sharma , he failed a lot initially at early stage of his career and today he is class act. Dinesh Karthik mostly willll be called to play for injured players as replacement and he will be in tremendous pressure to perform , since he get chance of one or maximum two matches to prove his worth and then with pressure he fail again .He was given two years of continuous playing for India from 2017 to 2018 and he played well above 45+ average in Odi and played well in twenty matches with really good numbers. He started 2019 with few bad games with meagre average and again he was dropped.If long rope was given for Dinesh karthik , he would have been fabulous player.
The truth is Dk had it in him to be one of the greatest but the commence of Ms Dhoni in Indian cricket made Dk in the side tracks after which he was never in contention for the playing 11, always playing as a backup keeper to Ms Dhoni. I think what he could have done is to improve his fielding and aim for coming back in the team as a pure batsmen in the middle order instead of a wicket keeper batsmen. But I guess sadly its time up for him now.
What we at times forget is the personal issues Karthik had to face. His wife leaving him, being not selected in Indian team even after scoring runs in domestic season, not being selected for CSK in IPL , things like that. His career has been on the rise lately, and his personal life has been good, which we can understand from his interviews and videos.
2011 indias tour main issue was we never had such an opening stand in any of the games soon our middle order was exposed and Anderson was in his prime form!!!! That's why india had a sad 4-0 :(
Too harsh on him . His avg is kinda okay in oversea as a wk . And his wk is par par better than DK . Just see his catches and all Saha can easily get you many catches in overseas . N change the whole match . As our bowlers nowdsys are way good and creates lot of chances . DK is excellent in shorter formats
He scored a test hundred against Bangladesh, in fact Wasim Jaffer, Rahul Dravid and Sachin Tendulkar also scored centuries in the same innings. Ganguly scored 15 and Dhoni scored 51.
