I played cricketing shots, says http://www.senore.com/Cricket/KD-Karthik-c1780 – Cricket News Update
Having played a match-winning knock in a group fixture of the 6th edition of the Indian Premier League (IPL) against Delhi Daredevils, Dinesh Kathik, the Mumbai Indians’ wicketkeeper/batsman, is jubilant with his performance and said that the
pitch, at the Wankhede Stadium, Mumbai, was ideal for stroke-play.
http://www.senore.com/Cricket/SR-Tendulkar-c2556 and Ponting for only one run on the board.
Karthik took the responsibility on his shoulders and constructed a brilliant partnership along with http://www.senore.com/Cricket/RG-Sharma-c2309. The wicketkeeper/batsman played some stunning shots and scored 86 runs off merely 48 balls with the help of 14 fours and a couple of sixes.
He was rightly adjudicated as the Man of the Match.
While expressing his views during the post-match presentation ceremony, Karthik revealed that he played his natural game and did not try to hit the ball too hard, which was the secret behind his success. Apart from praising the track, the 27-year-old cricketer
admired the way Sharma played.
"It was a good wicket to bat on, I thought I'd play a few shots and it came off. I was trying to play cricketing shots, nothing out of the book,” http://www.senore.com/Cricket/Kommu-Karthik-c71642 mentioned. “We got about 375 runs for a T20 game. Rohit batted wonderfully, it was important he batted
till the end after I got out and he did that well. It's important to be consistent and help my team win more games."

“We've spoken this tournament about playing with freedom and both Rohit and http://www.senore.com/Cricket/Dinesh-c54134 did that today. Things have started coming together quite nicely. We knew if we got Warner we could win the game," the former Australian captain added.
Mumbai, having won two out of their first three matches of the on-going season, will take on Pune http://www.senore.com/Cricket/India-c750 in their next encounter on Saturday at Mumbai.
