Karun returned to the grind of domestic cricket to establish his value, according to Aakash Chopra comments. He believed that Karun’s performance in the current series had been patchy at best.
Karun Nair should have a chance to play in the forthcoming Lord’s Test so that a final decision regarding his place in the Test XI can be made, according to former Indian cricketer Aakash Chopra. Karun has only managed to score 77 runs in four innings thus far in this series, marking his return to international cricket after eight years.
Given that this is Karun Nair’s last chance, I would definitely advise giving him one more chance. He was dropped after playing earlier and scoring a triple century. In a video posted to his YouTube channel, Aakash Chopra said, “It was a little unfair at the time.”
He then returned to the team after scoring a lot of runs. He requested a second opportunity from cricket. Cricket offered him another chance once he moved to Vidarbha. But eventually, that story will come to an end as well, and today is the match. Although he hasn’t scored many runs in the first two games, we have seen glimmers of his batting prowess,” he continued.
Give him enough opportunities to succeed or fail: Aakash Chopra
The former Indian cricket player pushed the team management to keep him in the lineup for the third Test of the series, believing that six straight innings would be the best window to assess a batter’s performance.
Sai Sudharsan was dropped, but he was retained. Give him at least one more Test match, in my opinion. Six innings will then be played. After six innings, you can answer the phone. Err on the side of giving a player one more game rather than one less when giving them a chance. Resurrections are not easy. Give him enough opportunities to achieve or fail,” Aakash Chopra said.
The third match in what is already an extremely exciting series will see India play the hosts at Lord’s. After suffering a five-wicket loss in the first match of the series, they pulled off an incredible comeback at Edgbaston to win by 336 runs.
