“I think Chennai, Bengaluru, Kolkata and Mumbai have very loyal fans. T...” — Dinesh Karthik Quote

I think Chennai, Bengaluru, Kolkata and Mumbai have very loyal fans. That's the beauty of franchise cricket.

I have been pretty free-flowing in my batting. I have not let situations change my batting around too much.

I have a St Bernard dog. They are very tough to take care of in the tropical weather in Chennai. They usually are found in mountains and the snow.

As a middle-order batsman, when you're chasing, trying to be the best finisher you can be, you're bound to make one or two mistakes.

I have always believed in my batting abilities. I have always put my hand up as a pure batsman and have enjoyed fielding as well. My ultimate aim is to play all formats as a batsman. I have done it before.

England's full of cricket tradition. I follow the game there hugely.

I'm completely cricketed out. If I never have to write another word about cricket again, I'll be a happy man.

I used to get up at five in the morning and play cricket.

When I was 15, I started playing first class cricket and always dreamt of being a Test cricketer, wanted to do something for the country, married in 1995, have 2 kids it's been great.

No matter where I end up in terms of wickets or the number of matches that I play, I think people will always remember me taking 10 wickets. So it is something that is always going to be special for me and for Indian cricket.
