Dinesh Karthik returns to play for Bangla Tigers in Abu Dhabi T10 after retirement

Dinesh Karthik, a former Indian cricketer, is now playing in the 2024 Abu Dhabi T10 for the Bangla Tigers after retiring from all forms of cricket earlier this year. He has transitioned from commentary back to playing, embracing the fast-paced T10 format. Karthik described the T10 format as "short and quick," noting the excitement of aggressive batting. He has not yet played a match but enjoys watching the fast action from the bench. The Bangla Tigers have struggled, winning only two of six games and sitting ninth in the standings. Karthik is also preparing to serve as a batting coach for Royal Challengers Bengaluru in the upcoming Indian Premier League.
