Dinesh Karthik

The KKR skipper has come a long way in his career after a lot of ups and downs. His recent exploits at the T20 level has earned him special praise from all the quarters.

The Nidhas Trophy held in SriLanka was a turning point in his career and made sure he was appointed the captain of the Kolkata Knight Riders. Dinesh Karthik, for the way he handles crunch situations and carries his team along, and also his batting is surely a match-winner for the KKR.

Dinesh Karthik has scored close to 3500 runs in 168 matches in his career so far but if the last season is anything to go by where he scored 498 runs at an astounding average of almost 50, he will surely be the player to make the most impact both as a captain and a player. And the fans will hope for the same.
