| Profile | A good wicket-keeper and a good batsman, Dinesh Karthik wouldn’t go to the length he looked to be built for. Inconsistency got him out of favor of Indian selectors, and the same era saw rise of MS Dhoni, meaning putting an end to trying out different wicket-keeping options. He did well in domestic and IPL cricket though. |
