Dinesh Karthiks unique choice of helmet has always been a topic of discussion, especially in the ongoing series in Australia. The Indian team is playing in a newly launched bright blue jersey in this action series and Karthik has opted to match the color of the jersey to the color of his helmet. The bright blue color of his helmet makes helmet even more special in the eyes of the onlookers.

When asked why you wear a different helmet than others, his answer was as follows.
He told that whenever I wear a regular helmet (which everyone wears), my movement does not happen properly while keeping wicket and I cannot concentrate on the ball. The most important thing in keeping the wicket is that you are moving. Whether or not if you do not go near the ball while moving, then your ball will be missed. Thats why he does this. And his helmet is very lightweight as compared to the regular helmet, so he does not have any problem in movement, so he uses a different helmet while batting and wicket keeping.
