Navjot Singh Sidhu says Karun Nair’s technical weakness has been exposed in England

Former Indian opener Navjot Singh Sidhu believes Karun Nair’s technical weakness has been exposed in England in the ongoing Anderson-Tendulkar series. Nair has scored 131 runs in three Test matches at an average of 21.83 against England and thus he has failed to deliver the goods.

The right-hander has been getting off to starts, but he hasn’t been able to convert them into substantial scores. Nair batted at number six in the opening Test at Leeds, Headingley and then he was promoted to bat at one drop in the last two Test matches but he has not been able to grab his chances.

Navjot Singh Sidhu said on his YouTube Channel, “Karun Nair has played three Test matches. He is a very promising cricketer, but his technical weakness has been exposed. The big question is whether you will go to win or to build a team. When you think of winning, I think what is the fault of Sai Sudharsan?”

Sidhu wants India to back Sai Sudharsan in the fourth Test against England. Sudharsan had returned with scores of 0 and 30 while making his debut at Leeds.

Sidhu concluded, “You have one of the most promising players of India who won the Orange Cap. Yes, there is no connection whatsoever between IPL and Test cricket, but he was in form. Technically, one of the soundest low-gravity batsmen, whose hand-eye co-ordination and head is always completely above the toe, and a left-hander. Why shouldn’t he come to the team?”

Sudharsan also scored 759 runs in 15 matches of IPL 2025 for Gujarat Titans and thus played an instrumental role in taking the team to the playoffs.

The fourth Test match between England and India will be played at Emirates Old Trafford, Manchester, from July 23 onwards.
