Not just for young players, but the stage of Indian Premier League has also proved to be a good platform for veterans of the game. There are several senior cricketers who didn’t get many opportunities or were unlucky in international cricket but are now making all the noise with their performance in IPL. One such unlucky veteran is Dinesh Karthik, who is grabbing all the limelight with his batting in IPL 2024.
Karthik made his debut in international cricket as a complete batsman and a wicketkeeper. He proved his mettle, but unfortunately, he was a bit unlucky and didn’t get many opportunities to showcase his full potential. Here, in IPL 2024, he’s playing under the captaincy of Faf du Plessis for Royal Challengers Bangalore and is one of the most valuable players for the team. Even though his smashing knock didn’t win a game against Sunrisers Hyderabad, he earned the praise of cricket fans.
Talking about the beginning of the IPL career, Dinesh Karthik started his innings in 2008 with the team of Delhi Daredevils, and he was bought at 2.10 crores. At the same price, he played for the team till 2010. In 2011, he went to Punjab Kings at a price of 4.14 crores. With the same salary, he was transferred to Mumbai Indians and played for the team in 2012 and 2013.
