Treat Karun Nair like Kl Rahul & Shubman Gill, says Harbhajan Singh before the Manchester test
Nair scored 131 points in 3 games. Despite the registration of a single score to a figure, he did not count the opportunities.
Karun Nair’s return was disappointing. Tas of racing in domestic cricket were supported by a double hundred for India A. The experienced striker seemed ready to succeed. But it was anything but. 3 games later, Nair is the only top 5 at the top 5 that did not score half a century in the India VS England test series.
What crime did Karun Nair commit?
Now everyone wants a change. Sai Sudharsan, who had made his debut in Birmingham, was abandoned, and Nair took care of position number three. People want Sudharsan to come back. But the former Indian holder Harbhajan Singh thinks that Nair deserves more likely.
“It is just that Karun did not score points, but if you gave him chances, then persist with him (now) he may not have scored points according to expectations, but he is a good cricket player,” Harbhajan said on his YouTube channel.
Cricket Great explained that players must be treated equally. Before being appointed Indian test captain, Shubman Gill was on average only 35.05 after 32 games. KL Rahul, even after marking 2 hundred in the current series, is only on average 35.26 after 61 games.
The two received long strings. Bhajji wants the same to Nair. Yes, he did not take advantage of his 6 chances. However, you have to give players time to prove if they are suitable for international cricket. Since Nair is 33 years old, it could be his last chance. So give him a long rope, and if he fails, by all means, bring someone else.
“I think each player deserves an equitable chance. Shubman Gill, Kl Rahul – They all have (all the chances) deserved. The reference should be the same for everyone. If others get 5-6 chances, then what crime in Karun Nair or Sai Sudharsan committed (not to have had more opportunities)? ” Harbhajan added.
The Tired of Sai Shi Sonsan Coe
He had a similar point of view on Sudharsan. The 23 -year -old was abandoned after his debut in the test. Harbhajan thinks that Sudharsan should also receive many games. However, this cannot happen right now, because Nair is knocking on his position. But when Sudharsan’s time arrives, it should be supported in the handle.
“I do not think that a chance for Sai Sudharsan is justified to prove his talent. He is a talented player and will come well, but if you persist with Karun, then play him (in Manchester)”, “ Said Harbhajan.
