Murali Vijay is still the fifth highest run-scorer of this year’s TNPL

Speaking of that video, it was seen that Vijay was fielding at the boundary rope. Suddenly, the crowd, behind him, started to chant ‘DK, DK’. It made the batter awkward. But, he just smiled back and showed folding hands to them in a gentle manner. Meanwhile, Dinesh Karthik will be seen playing the upcoming five-match T20I series against West Indies. 

Both Murali Vijay and Dinesh Karthik have a little history previously regarding their personal life. Karthik’s first wife Nikita Vanjara reportedly had an affair with Murali Vijay. However, she ended up marrying Murali Vijay and they are still happily married. Speaking of Murali Vijay’s comeback, he managed to score 224 runs in just four matches at an average of 56 with a strike rate of 172.30. However, his contributions have failed to do any good to his team as his team is in seventh place. 

They managed only five points in seven matches, with two wins in the bag. Ahead of this tournament, Vijay talked with ESPNcricinfo regarding his comeback. He said: “I want to play as long as possible. Just took a personal break. I have a young family and wanted to take care of them. I’m enjoying my cricket now and I’m feeling fit, hopefully, I can do my bit for my team and TNPL,”
