Dinesh Karthik becomes the batting coach and mentor

Former cricketer Dinesh Karthik is making a comeback to Royal Challengers Bangalore (RCB) in a fresh role as the team's batting coach and mentor. This decision was announced by the Bengaluru-based Indian Premier League (IPL) franchise on July 1 via a social media post. Karthik, who recently bid adieu to all forms of cricket post the IPL 2024 season, is all set to assume this significant responsibility to guide and inspire the team.

Having delivered an impressive performance during IPL 2024 by scoring 326 runs with a strike rate of 187.35, Karthik's comeback to RCB in this new role has created a wave of excitement among the team and its supporters. RCB has expressed their delight in welcoming Karthik back, highlighting his strong bond with the team and its fan base.

In a heartfelt address to RCB fans, Karthik expressed his gratitude for their steadfast support throughout the last three years. He recalled a touching encounter with an RCB enthusiast in New York, underscoring the global outreach and dedication of the RCB fan community. Karthik expressed his eagerness to contribute to the team in his new capacity, pledging to give his best to aid RCB in achieving success.

Karthik's appointment as the batting coach and mentor is anticipated to bring a wealth of experience and insights to the team, lending invaluable support to RCB's quest for their maiden IPL title.
