India vs New Zealand 2017, 2nd ODI: 5 things we learnt from the match 

#1 Dinesh Karthik puts to rest the No. 4 debate

Karthik took India to a comfortable victory

The No. 4 spot has been the subject of constant debate in recent times and Dinesh Karthik was the latest name thrown into the mix after Manish Pandey, Kedar Jadhav and Hardik Pandya. Karthik was adamant to make this opportunity count and went about his business in a calm manner.

Tons of domestic runs finally seemed to be helping as Karthik hung around even as Kohli edged Colin de Grandhomme to the keeper. With Pandya and Dhoni for company, Karthik composed a fine half-century and put the No. 4 debate to a rest, at least for the near future.
