Apr 16, 2020 PTI Karun Nair, who is only the second Indian player to hit a triple century in Test cricket, said it was encouraging for him to get an opportunity under Rahul Dravid, who accumulated 13,288 in the game's traditional format

Karun Nair, who missed out on a century in the first innings by a run, hit a majestic ton to help India Red declare at 297/6 after posting 285 in the first innings. India Red scored 255
Aug 24, 2019 Outlook Web Bureau Starting the day at 163/2, India Red ended with 285 thanks to a century from Ankit Kalsi and Karun Nair's 99. Jaydev Unadkat then took two wickets as India Blue were 74/3 at the close of play.
Recently, both Nair and Vijay spoke to the media about alleged "lack of communication" on the part of the selection committee, a charge emphatically denied by chairman Prasad himself.
After spending time on the bench for six consecutive Test matches against Afghanistan and England, the selectors dropped Karun Nair for the West Indies Test series.
The dropping of Nair, who was not played in a single Test in England, has become a topic of intense debate in cricketing circles with many experts terming the BCCI selectors' move as baffling.

The pandemic has made it clear that virtual learning is here to stay. In the West, the big question is whether it will dilute the quality of the college experience and education. In India, which grapples with digital divide, the question remains whether this will reach most people at all.
