    As per ESPNcricinfo, Karthik has missed just two matches in 17 seasons. He debuted with Delhi Daredevils (now Delhi Capitals).

    Joint second-most appearances in IPL

    Karthik played 257 matches in his IPL career, the joint second-most by a player with Rohit. The duo is only behind Dhoni, who has been a part of 264 IPL games.

    Karthik finishes with 4,842 runs, presently the 10th-most in the IPL. He has 22 half-centuries to his name.
