It is tough leading an IPL team, but don’t blame Dinesh Karthik for looking to Australia before heading to Eden Gardens on Saturday evening. It would be because Karthik could have more than an eye on a different ball game. Around 2:30pm Indian time on Saturday, his wife Dipika Pallikal would be playing for the squash mixed doubles gold with Saurav Ghosal in the Commonwealth Games at the Oxenford Studios show courts. Pallikal is also two wins away from defending her women’s doubles gold with Joshna Chinappa. They play the semi-finals on Saturday morning so don’t blame Karthik if he is up with the lark.
