Ranking the Indian No.4 batsmen by Batting Average at No.4 Position

#2 Dinesh Karthik

Dinesh Karthik

Dinesh Karthik also has got a fair amount of chances at this slot before him becoming a contender for the No.5 and No.6 slot of the Indian cricket team. He played 2 ODI matches in the India tour of West Indies with scores of 2 and 50*. He then played a match as the no,4 batsmen when New Zealand toured India and he scored 64*.

When Sri Lanka toured India, he scored 0 and 26* as the No.4 batsman and when India toured England, he was given one opportunity and scored 21 runs. in total, he scored 163 runs at an average of 54.33.

The fact remains that he has an impressive batting average at the No.4 slot for India having played 6 matches during this period. But the team management feels that Karthik is better suited to play as a finisher at No.6, as evidenced by Virat Kohli's opinions in recent press conferences.

With an average of 54.33, Dinesh Karthik is at No.2 in our list of the best No.4 batsman of the Indian cricket team.
