Karthik Reveals Virat’s Retirement: Royal Challengers Bangalore’s batting coach and mentor Dinesh Karthik has revealed that despite Virat Kohli’s decision to retire from Test cricket, Indian veteran batsmen are the most ‘happy and best’ after their announcement. At the same time, Karthik recently revealed the reason behind Kohli’s retirement from the test and said that Kohli wants to spend more time with his family. On Friday, RCB’s match against Sunrisers Hyderabad was the first match after Kohli’s decision. RCB was to face Kolkata Knight Riders at M. Chinnaswamy Stadium, but the match was canceled due to rain, due to which the match against SRH had to be transferred to Lucknow.
Karthik said in a conversation with broadcasters before the game, ‘It was a shock for the outside world, so we are just seeing what Virat is doing. He is now in his most happy phase, he is enjoying the game and he really wants to spend his time with his family. This is a personal decision, we respect it and it is happening like everyone. But the truth is that whenever we want to see them playing, it is very good to see them happy and ready. The most important thing is to keep them in a good mood.
Karthik explained the possibility of going to the top and how the mid-season break helped RCB to recover. He said, ‘I think it is to reach the top two in the middle of this tournament. The matches left are important for us. If possible, we will try to reach the top two. This is a welcome change, boys are refreshed and ready to play. ‘
Karthik said, ‘Brake got time to recover the silver, it is a very positive thing, on the other hand, we lost Dev (Padikkal) because it could not fit. We are missing her but we have Mayank and he is a talented player, he has been in the tournament for many years, so I am eager to see him in action.
