"Dreams Do Come True": Dinesh Karthik's First Reaction After Being Named in India's T20 World Cup Squad

There was little surprise in store in India's squad for the 2022 T20 World Cup 15-member squad which was announced om Monday. The squad bore a striking resemblance to the one that played in the recently-concluded Asia Cup, barring the exception of Jasprit Bumrah and Harshal Patel - both of whom made a return to the squad after recuperating from injuries. The squad announcement was yet another validation of Dinesh Karthik's resurgence in recent times as he was named as one of the two wicketkeepers along with Rishabh Pant. The veteran wicketkeeper had a stellar IPL and has emerged as a great finisher in the T20 format.

While there has been a raging debate about who should play for India between Rishabh Pant and Dinesh Karthik in the T20I team, Cheteshwar Pujara said that ideally both wicketkeepers should make the playing XI come the 2022 T20 World Cup in Australia. While Dinesh Karthik, picked to play the finisher's role, barely got a chance to bat in the Asia Cup, while Rishabh Pant could not impress when he did get to bat. But Pujara still thinks that Pant should be in the middle order, with Karthik continuing as finisher.

India vs Pakistan, Asia Cup 2022, Super 4, Live Score Updates: India and Pakistan will once again be meeting each other in the ongoing Asia Cup at the Dubai International Cricket Stadium. This time it is a Super 4 clash that takes place on Sunday. On August 28, Team India got the better of Pakistan in the group stage by five wickets as Hardik Pandya displayed an all-round performance, taking three wickets and scoring unbeaten 33. Both India and Pakistan have been battling injuries and the likes of Ravindra Jadeja and Shahnawaz Dahani are sidelined. Jadeja has been ruled out of the tournament while Dahani will miss the match against India due to a suspected side strain. It will be interesting to see whether the Babar-Azam led would avenge their last week's defeat or not. (LIVE SCORECARD)
