IND vs ENG: India team selection eludes Karun Nair despite brilliant form in Vijay Hazare Trophy

The Hindu  

A place in India’s One Day International team eluded Karun Nair despite his remarkable form with the bat in the ongoing Vijay Hazare Trophy. So far, the right-handed batter has scored an impressive 752 runs in seven innings at an average of 752, including five centuries and a half-century, and has guided Vidarbha to the Vijay Hazare Trophy final. While his name was discussed during the team selection, he missed out on a spot for India’s home ODI series against England. “And if tomorrow, there is a loss of form or injuries, there will certainly be a conversation around him…” Nair, 33, played six Tests and two ODIs for India.
