Μετά το ντεμπούτο το 2016 και έχοντας σημειώσει έναν τριπλό τόνο, ο Batter Karun Nar έπαιξε την τελευταία φορά για την Ινδία το 2017.
The BCCI is leaving no stone unturned in ensuring, that despite being a busy schedule with the IPL 2025, the top Indian players get to practice for the India vs England Tests too, which follows soon after the league. And just for that, these players will be part of the “India A” squad, which will face the England Lions in two four-day matches in May-June window.
India vs England Tests from June 20, IND ‘A’ Match from May 30
India vs England five-match Test series will kick-off on June 20 at Headingly. “The first four-day match will be hosted at The Spitfire Ground, St Lawrence in Canterbury from May 30. The second match is scheduled to begin a week later on June 6 at the County Ground in Northampton,” the England and Wales Cricket Board (ECB) said in a statement.
For now, most of the Indian players expected to make the cut for the Test series, will be busy with the IPL, with the tournament ending on May 25. If all goes well, India batter Karun Nair, who has been out of the national setup for years now, could be at least a part of the “A tour”.
Karun Nair to be Part of Squad?
The now-Vidarbha batsman, Karun has been impressive in the domestic circuit in 2024-25, in all the formats. He finished as the highest run-scorer in the Vijay Hazare Trophy, and the fourth-highest in Ranji Trophy. “There is enough time to announce the squad, mostly ahead of the knockouts or just after those matches. You will then get a clear picture as to which players are available by then,” a source close to the development told PTI on the condition of anonymity.
Once again, Rohit Sharma is expected to be the skipper of the side, who had famously dropped himself out of the final Test on the Australia tour. Without any doubt, the fitness of Jasprit Bumrah will also be kept an eye on; the speedster has been out of action for a few months now, after suffering a back injury Down Under, and will miss a few games for MI in IPL 2025 too.
