Karun Nair, a right-handed opening batsman and occasional off-break bowler, was born in Jodhpur, Rajasthan. He represents Karnataka in domestic cricket and has played for the state at various junior levels. Additionally, Nair has been part of India’s U-19 team during their tour of Australia.
Karun Nair has expressed optimism about a potential return to the Indian Test team. Known for being one of the only two Indians to have scored a triple century in Test cricket—alongside Virender Sehwag, who has achieved this feat twice—Nair’s promising start to his international career has been followed by challenges that led to his exclusion from the squad. Despite these setbacks, he remains hopeful for a comeback.
