On the first day of the fifth Test against England, Karun Nair took care of the Indian innings by scoring a half -century, but at the same time he also did something that increased the fans’ mind and increased it for him. Sportsman Spirich was discussed a lot in this series, but on the first day of the fifth Test, Karun Nair showed why cricket is called ‘Gentleman Game’ and what is the Sportsman Spirit.
On the first day of this fifth Test match being played at Kennington Oval, Karun Nair of India remained unbeaten by scoring 52 runs till the end of the game and he also made many beautiful shots during his innings. However, the beautiful moment of his innings came when he refused to take the fourth run visible, showing the game spirit.
In fact, England’s veteran fast bowler Chris Woakes was hurt in a shoulder in an attempt to save a four. After taking three runs, Nair had a chance to take a fourth run, but he gestured to his partner Washington Sundar not to do so. Nair’s move was appreciated by many fans on social media. While fielding, the left shoulder of Vox was badly injured. His injury seems so serious that he may not be able to play the rest of the match.
After the first day’s game, his fellow fast bowler Gas Atkinson told BBC Sport, “It doesn’t look good. If he takes part in the match, I will be surprised. This is the last match of the series and when someone is injured, it is a shame. We are hoping that it will not be too bad. Whatever happens, all will get full support.”
If during the current series, he has not been able to do anything special. He has taken 11 wickets at a bad average of 52.18, with his best performance 3/84.
