Team is a new beginning time for India and with this an old face is returning to Indian Test cricket again. The BCCI has announced an 18 -member team for the 5 -Test series against England, with the command handed over to Shubman Gill. While many young players have got a chance in this team, a name is drawing everyone’s attention – Karun Nair.
Return to Test team after 8 years
Karun Nair played his last Test in March 2017. Now about eight years later, he is again included in the Test team. After Kohli’s retirement, the team needed experience in the middle order, which Nair can complete. He created history by scoring an unbeaten 303 against England in 2016, and now he has got a chance to prove himself again.
The reason for a comeback in domestic cricket became a strong performance in domestic cricket
Karun Nair made his comeback on the strength of his brilliant performance in the Ranji Trophy and Vijay Hazare Trophy.
Ranji Trophy 2024-25: 863 runs, 4 centuries and 2 half-centuries in 9 matches
Vijay Hazare Trophy: 779 runs in 9 matches, 5 centuries
These figures show that Nair has worked hard to return to Team India and now he has got an important opportunity.
Career’s journey so far
Test matches: 6 matches, 374 runs at an average of 62.33, a triple century
ODI match: 2 matches, 46 runs
Now it has to be seen what Nair is able to do for Team India with his experience and confidence in England’s fast and challenging circumstances.
