IPL 2018, MI VS KKR: 4 Unnoticed things from the match between Mumbai Indians and Kolkata Knightriders

#3 Dinesh Karthik asking youngsters to step up to the occasion

Karthik has shown immense faith in the youngsters

This has been the beauty of Karthik-the skipper in this year’s VIVO IPL. With Kolkata going in for a lot of younger players, he has played a vital role in bringing all of them together at such a big stage as IPL.

The franchise has shown immense faith in the youngsters and have allowed them to blossom and express themselves at the field.

They have got the backing needed from their skipper as the likes of Shivam Mavi and Shubman Gill have been given a long run of play despite some average performances. Kathik, at times, has thrown them in deep waters to give them a taste of pressure at such an early stage in their careers.
