TIL Desk Sports/ As the Indian and Australian teams moved to Nagpur for the second T20I game on Friday, Australian cricket legend Matthew Hayden confessed he is confused with Dinesh Karthik’s role in the side. In the first T20I game at Mohali on Tuesday, Karthik, who was assumingly picked as the finisher, came in to bat after Axar Patel.
‘This role Dinesh is playing now, for the life of me, I can’t work out why he wouldn’t be in their batting now. It doesn’t make any sense to me whatsoever,’ Hayden, one of Star Sports’s match commentators, said. ‘See, I don’t want to give the impression that I’m disrespecting Dinesh Karthik, but he should be batting more,’ Hayden pointed out.
‘He is such a good player that he can come in and play this exact same shot. I question the role that he is playing as a finisher. I think there is a role for him to come up the order,’ Hayden added.
