Karun Nair: When Karun Nair scored a triple century in a Test match against England, it was taken as a sign that India had got a new superstar in its top order. Karun became the second Indian after Virender Sehwag to achieve this feat. However, after that triple century, luck has turned so badly against Karun Nair that this cricketer is struggling with it even today. After that triple century against England, Karun’s bat became silent.

The result of this was clear, he was dropped from the team. Still, Karun Nair did not give up, he scored a lot of runs in domestic cricket and after a long gap, returned to Team India during the England tour last year. However, the same old story was repeated exactly as it had happened immediately after his triple century. Karun was once again dropped from the Indian team. His bad luck continued to follow him and it seems to be continuing in the ongoing IPL 2026 season as well.

Karun Nair failed again in IPL 2026

Although Karun Nair has got very few opportunities to play in IPL, whenever he has taken the field, he has failed in most of the matches. Something similar happened against Chennai Super Kings (CSK) in the 48th match of IPL 2026. At the Arun Jaitley Stadium, when Delhi Capitals lost the first two wickets against CSK, Karun was sent to bat at number four.

Karun had a golden opportunity to take over the innings for his team and get them out of difficult situations but he failed to do so. Karun Nair was out after scoring only 13 runs in 13 balls. After this disappointing performance, Karun must be cursing his luck and wondering why such bad luck continues to follow him. This was only the second chance for Karun to play this season. It was not just about his batting. Due to dropping a catch while fielding, Karun also played a role in bringing Delhi Capitals to the verge of defeat in the last match.
