India Should Invest In Sai Sudharsan Over Karun Nair For Last Two Tests: Deep Dasgupta

By IANS News July 17, 2025 • 15:20 PM View: 174

Former wicketkeeper-batter Deep Dasgupta believes India should look to have B Sai Sudharsan over Karun Nair for the final two Test matches of the ongoing series against England, citing that the latter hasn’t really nailed the number three spot.

Nair, who’s made a comeback to the Test team after eight years, has made just 131 runs in three games and is the only top-four batter from either side to have not hit a half-century in the Anderson-Tendulkar Trophy series.
