Dinesh Karthik answered an array of questions, and it's no surprise that the star wicketkeeper claimed if he had the capacity to read minds, he'd try to read MS Dhoni's mind.

Digital Desk: In a fun-filled conversation for the BCCI on Sunday, veteran wicketkeeper-batsman Dinesh Karthik gave a sneak peek into his selections, favourite athletes, and so on. The Royal Challengers Bangalore star appears relaxed and collected after returning to the senior national team for the current T20 series against South Africa.

Dinesh Karthik answered an array of questions, and it's no surprise that the star wicketkeeper claimed if he had the capacity to read minds, he'd try to read MS Dhoni's mind.

When asked what he would have done if he had the power to fly or read people's minds, Dinesh Karthik replied: "I would fly to Alaska if I had the ability to do so." Alaska has gotten a lot of good press. If I'm given the capacity to read people's minds, I'm going to try to get into MS Dhoni's head."

Dinesh Karthik also preferred tea over coffee, claiming that when he goes outside of Tamil Nadu, he has better access to well-made chai.

Karthik did not hesitate when asked to choose between Roger Federer and Rafael Nadal.

"For lunch, I'd want to have Roger Federer. I've always admired the way he conducts himself both on and off the field. " Karthik remarked.

Karthik further stated that he prefers to watch Messi over Cristiano Ronaldo. "Messi, I believe he's slightly different, and I enjoy watching him in what little I've seen of him."

Karthik, who prefers team dinners over movie evenings with his teammates, is in good spirits after making his T20I comeback for the first time in three years.

Karthik was rewarded for his outstanding performance with RCB in the IPL 2022. In 16 matches, the former Kolkata Knight Riders skipper, who was purchased by RCB at the IPL mega auction in 2022, made 330 runs with a strike rate of above 180.

In India's 7-wicket loss to South Africa in the first T20I, Karthik faced only two deliveries. Cuttack will host the second match of the five-match series on Sunday.
