4. Dinesh Karthik

The career of Dinesh Karthik has been fairly an unfortunate one, after bursting into the international arena in early 2000, he was soon replaced by the more capable MS Dhoni. Though Karthik’s career wasn’t termed over, he continued to shine and rise for his state side Tamil Nadu.

He is infamously remembered for the sparkling finish against Bangladesh in the 2018 Nidahas Trophy Final where Karthik smashed 22 of the final over to seal the trophy for India. But even after giving consistent performances for the Indian team in the shortest format, Karthik failed to be India’s first-choice keeper in the presence of MS Dhoni.

Even after MS Dhoni’s retirement, the team management picked Rishabh Pant and KL Rahul as the successors of the long-serving wicketkeeper. With Karthik’s career with the Indian team almost seemed over, it’s possible that Karthik might decide to hang his boots this year.
