Delhi Capitals skipper had a heartfelt interaction with Royal Challengers Bengaluru mentor ahead of the IPL 2025 between both the teams at Arun Jaitley Stadium on April 27. While Axar was doing batting practice at nets on the eve of the match when Karthik spotted him and went towards him.
After that, Axar Patel paused his practice and came to greet Dinesh Karhik and showed a playful gesture towards him. Embarrassed with this, Karthik told Axar to resume his practice and went away. ‘DK bhai se hello to bolunga na (I will hello to DK bhai)’ Axar said while greeting Karthik. To this, the former cricketer replied with ‘Eh go be a captain.’ After that, Axar said ‘Arey DK bhai, bhai ho yaar aap’ (You’re my brother, DK). Getting frustrated with this, Karthik went away by saying “Eh tu khel na yaar. Mazak mat kar. Islie main net ke paas nahi ata. You go and bat, don’t fool around. That’s exactly why I don’t come near the nets).”
