Karun Nair, once seen as India’s future star in red-ball cricket, unfortunately, saw his career not progress as expected. He has played only six Test matches and two ODI games for the Indian cricket team. Will Karun Nair feature in the Indian Premier League (IPL) 2025 after missing the previous season, where he went unsold in the IPL 2024 auction?
Is Karun Nair playing in IPL 2025?
The Karnataka player was bought by Delhi Capitals at the base price of Rs 50 lakh in the IPL 2025. He was absent in IPL 2024; however, he is unlikely to be included in the Playing XI. If he gets a chance to play, he will need to perform at his best and do something extraordinary to earn another opportunity.
