- Indian team’s star batsman Karun Nair is fully prepared to make a comeback in Team India after almost 7 years. Now even Ajit Agarkar has agreed to give him a chance.
Karun Nair: Indian team’s middle-order batsman Karun Nair is batting brilliantly in the Vijay Hazare Trophy 2024-25. Karun Nair, who has been out of the team for a long time, has had the best recent performance, after which he can once again return to international cricket. Nair is scoring runs at an average of 664 in the domestic ODI tournament, after which the eyes of the BCCI selectors are also on Nair.
If his performance continues in the upcoming matches, he can soon be seen playing in the Indian jersey. It is being speculated that Karun Nair can make a comeback in Team India this year. This has also been discussed in the BCCI meeting. Karun Nair played his last match for India against Australia in 2017.
Ajit Agarkar will give you another chance!
The Indian team is currently going through a phase of change. India’s batting order proved to be a complete flop on the Australia tour. Despite having star players like captain Rohit Sharma, veteran batsman Virat Kohli, Shubman Gill, and KL Rahul, India failed to score big. On the Australia tour, India was able to touch the 300 mark only twice in 10 innings of five Tests. In-form Karun Nair may return to Team India, which is struggling with poor batting.

Indian team’s chief selector Ajit Agarkar and the officials of the selection committee are keeping a close eye on Karun Nair. If he continues to perform like this in the coming times, then he can once again make a comeback in Team India. Talking to the Indian Express, Robin Uthappa said that after Karun Nair’s strong performance, he has again come into the eyes of the selectors. He plays spin bowling very well.
Karun is in great form
Karun Nair is batting in his prime form in the domestic tournament. Earlier, he had performed very well while playing for Northamptonshire during the county match. This Indian batsman played only three matches there, in which he scored 78, 150, and 21. After this, in Ranji Trophy 2023-24, he scored a double century in the very first match after returning from the county.
Now he is attracting everyone’s attention with his tremendous batting in the Vijay Hazare Trophy 2024-25. If Karun Nair’s performance continues like this in the future, then he can be included in Team India for the 5 Test series to be played against England. All eyes are on this 33-year-old batsman. Indian legends also want to see this player in Team India again. It will be interesting to see whether Karun Nair gets a place in the team on the England tour or not.
