Notably, some time ago, Kartikeya expressed his thoughts on returning home that he would return home only after achieving things in his life.
During the 15th edition of the Indian Premiere League, he said that he will go home after the completion of the Indian Premier League 2022.
“I haven’t been home for 9 years. I’d decided to return home only when I achieve something in life. My mom and dad called me frequently, but I was committed. Now, finally, I’ll return home after the IPL. My coach Sanjay sir had suggested my name for Madhya Pradesh. In the first year, my name came up in the Under-23 team as a standby player, and I felt a huge sense of relief to see my name on the list,” Kartikeya had said to Dainik Jagran.
Kartikeya made his IPL debut on April 30 in a match against Chennai Super Kings. While, overall in his .IPL outing this year, the spinner has featured in 4 games and took 5 wickets with an economy of 7.85.
