3 Reasons Why Sai Sudharsan Should Play Manchester Test: Karun Nair made a comeback to international cricket after 8 years through the Test series between England and India, but his comeback was a complete flop. Nair got a chance in the first three matches, but he could not take advantage of it even once. Nair scored only 131 runs in 6 innings. During this, his highest score was 40 runs. Keeping this performance in mind, now the chances of him getting a chance in the remaining two matches of the series seem negligible.

3 Sai Sudharsan’s excellent current form
Sai Sudarshan made his Test debut through the Leeds Test. However, he could not make it memorable. A total of 30 runs came from Sudarshan’s bat in both the innings. After this he was dropped from the team. It is not at all fair to judge his talent through just one match. Let us tell you that Sudarshan is the same batsman who was the top scorer of IPL 2025. This shows how good his recent form is. By giving Sudarshan a chance in the Manchester Test, the Indian team can take advantage of his form.
2 Expert in playing ground shots
This left-handed player is an expert in playing ground shots. He believes more in rotating the strike through big shots. Such batsmen are needed in the Test format. At the same time, Sudarshan’s technique is also very good and he does not miss to attack the bowlers when he gets a chance.
1 Sudarshan’s arrival will provide left-right combination
If Sudarshan manages to make a place in the playing 11 in place of Nair in the Manchester Test, then this will give Team India another left-handed batsman. Team India’s left and right hand combination will improve, due to which the bowlers will face a challenge in maintaining their rhythm. Team India will benefit from this.
