IPL 2022: All hail 'finisher' Dinesh Karthik - Is there another India comeback on the horizon?

Dinesh Karthik has taken the 15th edition of Indian Premier League by storm. The wicketkeeper-batter is literally giving jitters to death overs bowlers in the league. It's not just the quick runs, Karthik's contributions overall have also been highly impactful in RCB's success in this season's campaign. Incredibly, DK has remained unbeaten in all of RCB's seven wins so far -- scoring 200 runs at a staggering strike rate of 202.02 in those games. The latest being a whirlwind 30 not out off just 8 balls against the Sunrisers Hyderabad over the weekend.

It's not a surprise that many are suggesting that Karthik should be in the India squad for the upcoming T20 World Cup. Over the years, DK, who made his India debut way back in 2004, made multiple comebacks to the Indian team.

So, the big question now is - will we see DK in the India blue again? He is surely in prime form. The selectors must have been watching keenly. Add to that the fact that he is playing for a team which has the former India captain Virat Kohli in it. He might not be the skipper anymore, but his inputs should be taken in deciding the final complexion of the Indian squad for the upcoming T20 World Cup later this year, in Australia.
