Nidahas Trophy: 3 reasons why Dinesh Karthik was a hit in the tournament

#3 Dinesh Review System

After the Dhoni review system, it was time for the Dinesh review system in this tournament

Ahead of the Nidahas Trophy, if anyone had doubts whether Dinesh Karthik, like MS Dhoni, would be able to help the team with the Decision Review System (DRS) or not, he put all speculations to rest.

In the last round-robin game against Bangladesh, Vijay Shankar bowled a short pitched delivery outside the off stump as Mushfiqur Rahim danced down the wicket to make room for himself. Rahim tried to swing hard but all he managed was a faint bottom edge on the ball on its way to Karthik behind the stumps.

As soon as Karthik realized that the umpire’s decision had not gone in his favour, he, in true Dhoni fashion, asked for a review even before skipper Rohit Sharma could make up his mind. The Ultra edge clearly showed that Rahim had nicked the ball and the decision had to be reversed. So, after the Dhoni review system, it was time for the Dinesh review system.
