AB de Villiers has also mentioned in a recent statement that Dinesh Karthik has encouraged him to play cricket once again. Seeing him, ABD feels that he should return to cricket once again and play a little more of the game that we all love.

De Villiers was quoted as saying by India Today that the form that Karthik is in at the moment and has already won 2-3 matches for RCB, he is in the best form of his career.

He mentioned that it is little bit surprising how Karthik has done so, because, before IPL 2022, he was doing commentary duties.

He went on to say that DK almost makes him feel like he should go back and play some cricket again, “He almost makes me feel like I want to go back and play some cricket again, watching him play,” stated the legendary batsman.
