Kolkata: Kolkata Knight Riders (KKR) captain Dinesh Karthik called the Duckworth-Lewis (D/L) method "strange" and said that he wants the Indian counterpart, the "VJD method", after his team was defeated by Kings XI Punjab by nine wickets in a rain-affected Indian Premier League (IPL) game in Kolkata on Sunday.

"I have always thought that the VJD is an Indian method and it's an Indian domestic tournament, why not think about it in the future? It's been proven that it's a really good method, we have used in domestic tournaments. Only for IPL, we use D/L. Why not think about VJD here and promote it?" Karthik said at the post match press conference.
