The Test series will begin with the competition between India and England at the Handingley Stadium in Leeds. However, just before this match, the injury of Team India’s star player has put the fans in trouble. Everyone’s eyes are on whether this player will be able to fit for the match. It also got an answer 24 hours before the Test match started. These players are star batsman Karun Nair, who was injured during practice two days before the match but it is a matter of relief that he is fully fit.
Karun Nair, who returned after 8 years in Team India, is believed to play in the first match of this Test series. But on Wednesday 18 June, when Team India practiced for the first time on the headingley ground, Nair, who was batting, was hurt during that time. A ball of his teammate stormy fast bowler famous Krishna from Karnataka got loud in his ribs. Due to this, he had to give up practice. Team India’s physio put ‘ice pack’ in his ribs and tried to bring comfort.
Nair arrives for practice again
48 hours before the match, this injury had disturbed Team India a little, but after the news came out, the fans started appearing in more tension. One of the reasons for this was that Nair was getting a chance to play in Team India after 8 years and he was looking to play in the first Test. But on Thursday 19 June i.e. 24 hours before the match, news came to provide relief to the fans. Nair once again reached the headingley for practice with Team India and did not appear in any kind of trouble. This also pacified the questions arising about his fitness and it will be expected that he should be seen playing.
Nair is in strong form
Nair’s fitness is also important for Team India because he has a good experience of playing in England. Also, for the last one year, he is also in constant form. He scored fierce runs in the last domestic season and had also batted strongly for India A before this Test series. In the first match against England Lions, he scored a great double century. In such a situation, their presence among inexperienced batsmen can be beneficial for Team India.
