After his stunning 8-ball 30* against SRH, Virat Kohli makes a gesture for Dinesh Karthik that goes viral.
Dinesh Karthik, the veteran Indian wicketkeeper-batsman, has been in incredible form, and the Wankhede crowd in Mumbai saw another glimpse of it on Sunday during the 2022 IPL match between Royal Challengers Bangalore and Sunrisers Hyderabad. Karthik smashed 30 runs off just eight balls in the innings to help RCB finish on 192 for three. Virat Kohli’s gesture towards Karthik after the fiery knock, on the other hand, went viral on social media.
After Glenn Maxwell was dismissed in the second ball of the 18th over, Karthik walked in. SRH’s tight bowling had reduced RCB to 159 for three at that point. Karthik was on strike for eight of the remaining ten balls, smashing four sixes and a boundary on his way to an unbeaten 30 that helped RCB reach 192 for three.
Kohli bowed down to hail Karthik’s slog-over hitting against Hyderabad as he made his way back to the dressing room after the blazing cameo.
Faf du Plessis, the RCB captain, later revealed that he was considering retiring early in the innings in order to bring in Karthik and maximise the profits.
“Everyone wants to get Karthik in and bat for as long as possible if he keeps hitting sixes like that. But he’s so straightforward. To be honest with you, I was trying to get out because I was so tired of trying to get DK in, and we were even thinking about me retiring “In his post-match presentation, du Plessis said.
“DK is in fantastic form right now. It was, however, a difficult wicket. It wasn’t one of those wickets where you could just walk in – I don’t think it was obvious with DK, but the other guys struggled the first two balls. Then, fortunately for us, I believe DK dropped a catch in that one over, and he took them apart.”

Mumbai defeats Vidarbha by 169 runs to win the 42nd Ranji Trophy, capping an eight-year reign.
Mumbai overcame Vidarbha by 169 runs in the Wankhede Stadium final on Thursday to end an eight-year drought for a record-tying 42nd Ranji Trophy victory. Vidarbha put up a valiant fight in the second inning to chase a massive 538 runs, but on Day 5, they were eventually bowled out for 368.
Vidarbha put up a valiant battle on Day 5 of the final, with captain Akshay Wadkar and Harsh Dubey leading the team’s struggle against Ajinkya Rahane’s troops. Vidarbha scored 81 runs in the opening session without losing a wicket thanks to the two’s resolute stance at the crease, which frustrated the home team.
Mumbai defeated Vidarbha by a commanding 169 runs in the Ranji Trophy final, putting on an outstanding display.
Following lunch, Wadkar gave Vidarbha’s innings a boost with a magnificent century, showcasing his batting prowess. But when it was time to step it up, Tanush Kotian got his wicket by lbw-ing Wadkar.
Following the captain’s exit, Vidarbha’s batting lineup came under increasing pressure. Even Dubey, who showed fortitude by hitting a steely 65 off 128 deliveries, gave in to the pressure of the scoreboard.
Mumbai’s bowlers strengthened their hold on the game as the innings went on. Vidarbha’s bottom order offered little resistance as Mumbai quickly completed the innings in just the next 25 deliveries.
Ajinkya Rahane gave the ball to Dhawal Kulkarni in a crucial moment following the loss of the ninth wicket in his final domestic encounter. With just his third ball of the spell, Kulkarni quickly secured the vital wicket of Umesh Yadav, securing Mumbai’s 42nd championship.
Mumbai won their first Ranji Trophy since 2016. The domestic powerhouses increased their lead over other teams in the standings for the most trophies won in the first-class competition. With Karnataka coming in a distant second, no other team has won the Ranji Trophy more times than this one.
