India veterans Dinesh Karthik and Shikhar Dhawan starred in their team DY Patil Blue’s brilliant win over RBI in the ongoing DY Patil T20 Cup on Friday, March 1, 2024.

RBI was knocked out for just 112 after they had opted to bat first against DY Patil Blue. This despite an opening stand worth 45 between Sumit Ghadigaonkar and Pranay Sharma. The chief wicket-takers for Blue were Pariskshit Valsangkar (4-15) and Karsh Kothari (3-12).

Then Shikhar Dhawan (45* in 29 balls) and Dinesh Karthik (36* in 21 balls) formed an unbeaten second-wicket partnership in the chase as the DYP Blue chased down the target in just 10.5 overs to finish on 113 for one.
