Dinesh Karthik, a stalwart of the Royal Challengers Bengaluru (RCB), bid farewell to his Indian Premier League (IPL) career with a defeat in the Eliminator match against Rajasthan Royals (RR) on Wednesday. Karthik, who had previously indicated that this IPL season would be his last, was honored by his teammates with a guard of honor following the conclusion of the match in Ahmedabad.
Although Karthik did not address the topic himself, the league's broadcaster confirmed his retirement through a social media post after the Eliminator contest. With a debut in the T20 league 16 years ago, Karthik is recognized as one of the premier finishers in this format of the sport.
Jio Cinema, the digital broadcaster for IPL, took to social media to pay tribute to the RCB wicket-keeper batsman who has one title to his name in the league.

A heartwarming moment for RCB fans ensued as Virat Kohli embraced Karthik, who appeared to be visibly moved by the gesture.
As Karthik made his way back to the dressing room, he was honored with a guard of honor by his fellow RCB players.
