Former cricketer Navjot Singh Sidhu believes that veteran Indian batter Karun Nair's technical weaknesses have been exposed in the ongoing Anderson-Tendulkar Trophy Test series against England. The 33-year-old's
comeback to Test cricket after an eight-year gap was highly awaited due to his prolific run in domestic cricket.
However, his performances on the England tour have been less than satisfactory. The right-handed batter has consistently failed to convert his starts into big scores, amassing 131 runs across six innings at an average of
21.83.
Karun's back-to-back failures have stirred a selection debate ahead of the visiting team's must-win fourth Test, with several experts backing the inclusion of Sai Sudharsan.
