Karun Nair’s bat did not run in England
Karun Nair, however, has not been able to prove himself in England. He has played three Tests on this tour and he could not score a half -century. In the Test series, he has played a paria of 0, 20, 31, 26, 40, and 14 runs. Karun Nair is now being talked about excluding, although he can still get a chance. The Manchester Test is starting from July 23 and Karun can play in it. By the way, if Karun fails in Manchester too, then it will be very difficult for him to remain in the playing XI.
