IPL 2022: It’s great if I can play for CSK, said Dinesh Karthik

Dinesh Karthik was released by the two-time winners Kolkata Knight Riders. The 36-year-old represented Kolkata Knight Riders in the last four editions. He even captained the side for a while but ahead of the IPL 2022, KKR released him.

Dinesh Karthik would now be hoping to start afresh this season. Karthik is looking forward to the mega auction which is scheduled to take place on February 12 and 13 in Bengaluru. In a conversation with the news agency, Karthik has said that he would be privileged to be a part of the defending champions Chennai Super Kings but at the same time, has also said that it is tough for him to pick a choice at the moment.

“It’s very hard for me to answer this question because it will be a very cliched answer. I’ll try and do everything that I can, not only to do well for the franchisee I play for but for myself also. Look, it’s great if I can play for CSK. I’m from Chennai. But at the end of the day, what’s important for me is whichever team that I get to play in, it will be an absolute honor because as I said, all this practice that I’ve been doing these days is to try and do well in a tournament like the IPL”, Karthik said.

Talking about IPL mega auction, a total of 590 players will go under the hammer at the auction. This includes several reputed openers. Among the 590 players, 370 are Indian and the rest 220 are overseas players
