Karun Nair: There is an Indian cricketer whose career is on the verge of ending after becoming a victim of politics. This cricketer scored a triple century in his third test match, but still his international cricket career is almost over. If he had got a chance, this player would have been one of the biggest star cricketers of Team India today. So let's take a look at this cricketer today.
India's most unlucky cricketer
Indian batsman Karun Nair scored a triple century in the third Test match of his Test career against a strong team like England. Except Virender Sehwag, no Indian batsman could make such a record. Only after this triple century, the countdown of Karun Nair's career started. Karun Nair was last seen playing for Team India in March 2017. Scoring a triple century is the dream of every Test specialist. But it seemed that his contribution was completely forgotten by the Indian selectors.
Thirsty for a chance in Team India for seven years
Karun Nair was included in the Indian Test squad for the 2018 Test series against England, but he did not play a single match throughout the tour. Karun Nair made big allegations against the then captain of the Indian team Virat Kohli and coach Ravi Shastri. Karun Nair said, I was included in the team for five Test matches in England, but I was not included in the playing eleven in any match. Meanwhile, the coach, captain or selectors did not give me any reason why I was out of the team. Nobody talked to me. Indian opener Murali Vijay also raised questions on the selectors. Murali Vijay said that there is a lack of communication between the selectors. He does not tell the players about their mistakes when they are out. So we don't even know what the selection criteria is.
Scored a triple century in Chennai
When Karun Nair scored a triple century against England in Chennai, it seemed as if Karun Nair was a long race horse, but it was not so. He was dropped from the team after scoring a triple century. This happened because the then captain of Team India, Virat Kohli did not want to drop Ajinkya Rahane from the team. Karun Nair had to be out to give chance to Ajinkya Rahane. If Karun Nair was given more chance, he could have become a big cricket star of India.
He has played only 6 test matches for Team India
Karun Nair made his Test debut against England in November 2016 and was last seen playing against Australia in March 2017. He played only 6 Test matches in his career and scored 374 runs at an average of 62.33. His high score in Test is 303 runs. However, Nair himself has no idea why despite his excellent performance he is not being given importance in the team.
selectors are not giving any chance
Karun Nair was included in the Indian Test squad for the 2018 Test series against England, but he did not play a single match during the entire tour. Whatever happened to him in England must have affected his mental level. He was in the team but Hanuma Vihari got a chance in his place. Karun Nair became the first batsman in the world to score a triple century in the shortest Test innings, but for 7 years he has been yearning for a place in Team India.
