“Here’s wishing Dinesh Karthik a very happy birthday #TeamIndia,” tweeted BCCI.

Meanwhile, India opener batsman Shikhar Dhawan wrote: “Happy birthday Dinesh Karthik bro, have a great one. Stay blessed”

“D (calm) and K (omposed) leader of the pack turns a year younger!

“#Happy Birthday Dinesh Karthik – Let the wishes pour in!” tweeted IPL side Kolkata Knight Riders, a team captained by Karthik since 2018.

Karthik has been one of the match winners for India. He is adored for his breath-taking 8-ball 29-run innings against Bangladesh in the final of the 2018 Nidahas Trophy. The Men in Blue were in a precarious state towards the conclusion of the match, needing 34 runs off the final two overs, and Karthik’s valiant knock saved India the blushes.
