It was an absolute pleasure & honor for Kuwait Cricket to host Dinesh Karthik at Sulaibiya Cricket Ground and have the National players & probably bowl at him as part of DK’s preparation & practice for the upcoming IPL before he flies back to India.
Dinesh Karthik is the pride of Kuwait as much as he is the pride of India. DK started his cricket in Kuwait playing at school tournaments & junior championships at the KOC grounds in Ahmadi and with immense talent at his disposal from a young age, DK went on to pursue his international cricketing career back in India and became a T20 World Cup winner in 2007 and also led Shah Rukh Khan’s KKR from 2018-2020 successfully at the IPL with match-winning performances & unique leadership.
Dinesh Karthik will now be representing RCB and the entire KCC fraternity wishes him all the best for the upcoming TATA IPL.
Kuwait Cricket Board Member & Head of Kuwaitis Development Mahmoud Bastaki & Director General Sajid Ashraf handed over the national team’s training jersey & cap to Dinesh Karthik as a souvenir of recognition & appreciation for his memorable achievements at the highest level for India.
