    "editor1": "<p><strong>Colombo, March 19 (CRICKETNMORE):<\/strong> &nbsp;Wicketkeeper-batsman Dinesh Karthik, who on Sunday, handed India a nail-biting four wicket victory over Bangladesh in the final of the Nidahas Trophy T20 tri-series with a six off the final ball, said he has been practising these types of shots.<\/p>\r\n\r\n<p>Coming in the second last over with scoreboard reading 133\/5, Karthik announced his arrival at the crease through two sixes and a four in first three balls which narrowed the gap between remaining balls and required runs.<\/p>\r\n\r\n<p>The drama unfolded in the last over when India needed five runs in the last ball. Kathik slammed a flat six over extra cover to clinch the issue.<\/p>\r\n\r\n<p>&quot;I have been practising these shots - having a strong base and then hitting from there,&quot; Karthik said after the match.<\/p>\r\n\r\n<p>&quot;Happy to be where I&#39;m and thanks to the support staff who have kept on supporting me for the last few months,&quot; he added.<\/p>\r\n\r\n<p>Chasing 167, skipper Rohit Sharma (56) once again led from the front with his classy knock but failed to finish off the proceedings. Middle-order batsman Manish Pandey (28) played sensible innings but was dismissed when needed the most. Then came Karthik who took India to victory.<\/p>\r\n\r\n<p>&quot;Really happy to come out of this tournament. Wouldn&#39;t have done justice to the tournament had we not won with the bunch of young guys in the team,&quot; Karthik said.<\/p>\r\n\r\n<p>Commenting on the match, Bangladesh skipper Shakib Al Hasan said: &quot;It hurts but we can learn a lot from this too. All credit to DK (Dinesh Karthik). We can take a lot of positives from this game and someday we can come out victorious.&quot;<br \/>\r\n&nbsp;<\/p>\r\n",
