There has been no shortage of star batsmen in the Indian team. But sometimes even talented players suddenly disappear from the team due to some reason. Nothing is going right for the Indian team right now. India lost to New Zealand at home and then Australia's defeat knocked them out of the WTC final. In such a situation, the biggest weakness of the Indian team was the poor form of the senior batsman.

Indian batsman Rohit Sharma is also going through bad form and runs are not coming from his bat. There is now pressure on them to perform. There are even reports of his retirement from Test cricket.

The wait is over, this player is ready to replace Rohit

After Rohit's poor form in the Indian Test team, it is now becoming difficult for him to get a place in the team. In such a situation, a backup has been prepared for Rohit's place, actually this player is Karun Nair who has played for the Indian team. Who has recently scored 5 centuries in 6 consecutive matches while playing in Vijay Trophy. This batsman has created havoc with his bat.

In this domestic tournament being played in ODI format, Karun has played innings of 122 runs, 112 runs, 111 not out against Tamil Nadu, 163 runs not out, 44 runs against Chhattisgarh and 112 not out against Jammu and Kashmir.

Karun did these things in the international match which Rohit-Virat could not do.

Let us tell you that Karun Nayar has played a total of 6 test matches for the Indian team and he has done the feat which even Rohit-Virat has not done till now. Karun Nair had batted hard against England and scored a triple century. Karun had scored unbeaten 303 runs in 381 balls. Which included 32 fours and 4 sixes. This was Karun's third test match. He last played for the Indian team in 2017. However, after this he did not get a chance and has been out of Team India for 7 years.
