Some of Karthik’s recent Ranji Trophy scores are 163, 73, 95, 65 and 80 while Parthiv has 53, 61, 60 and 139 to show for his efforts. In batting, Rishabh has been in prime form with 874 runs that includes four hundreds. He has scored a triple ton and the fastest hundred this season. “Regarding Dinesh, I don’t think he is keeping wickets for Tamil Nadu and I am not sure why that is a case. But, at the moment, that is what I gather.” It was learnt that Karthik has a hand injury which prompted him to purely play as a batsman. N Jagadeesan has been keeping wickets for Tamil Nadu.
