In fact, Nair, who is hoping to play his first Test match since 2017, was hit on his ribs by a fast ball from fast bowler Prasidh Krishna during the net session. He looked in a little pain due to this injury. But he started batting again soon. Later after the batting session, he showed the support staff and team members the place where the ball hit him.
There was a time when Karun Nair was considered the star of the future. He became the second Indian player to score a triple century in Tests, but despite his brilliant performance, he was dropped from the team. However, he performed solidly in the 2024-25 domestic season. Recently, Nair scored a double century in the India A vs England Lions series.
