“Dinesh Karthik was upset to play as 7th batsman”: Rohit Sharma

After the nail-biting win, India captain Rohit Sharma admitted Karthik was upset with his demotion during the post-match conference. He said, “I told him - I want you to bat and finish off the game for us because whatever skill you have, it will be required in the last three or four overs. He was quite upset with that. He’ll now be quite happy how he finished off the game. To do what he did today will give him a lot of confidence going forward”. Karthik took 22 runs in the 19th over which was bowled by Rubel Hossain.
