Speaking to PTI, the right-handed batter pointed out he is of the same age as Shikhar Dhawan, who emerged as the leading run-getter in India’s ODI series against South Africa earlier this year. He underlined the importance of experience and how it is critical in multi-nation competitions.
Dinesh Karthik said:
Karthik cited the examples of seasoned campaigners Shoaib Malik and Mohammad Hafeez, who were an integral part of Pakistan’s squad for the T20 World Cup 2021 in UAE. He believes that age is no longer the criteria for selection.
It is worth mentioning that Karthik’s last international appearance came in the semi-final of the 2019 World Cup against New Zealand. He managed just six runs in the fixture and hasn’t donned the Indian blues since.
