Karun Nair averaging a mind-boggling 752 in Vijay Hazare Trophy after 88* in VID vs MAH semifinal

Karun Nair's lowest score in the 2024-25 edition of the Vijay Hazare Trophy is 44*.

Karun Nair has been doing in the Vijay Hazare Trophy 2024-25 what you can’t describe or fathom. Even in video games, you may not be able to match what the batter has been doing for Vidarbha. Seven times has Nair batted in the ongoing List A competition, and he’s averaging 107 runs per innings. That’s mind-boggling. Well, wait a minute. What’s earth-shaking is that he’s been dismissed just once throughout the competition.

Karun Nair’s astounding Vijay Hazare Trophy run

Yes, you heard it right. Karun Nair has been dismissed once. 112*, 44*, 163*, 111*, 112, 122*, and 88*. These are his scores so far. He’d scored a whopping 542 runs before someone actually got him out. You’d think he was doing it against weaker teams or in inconsequential matches. That’s not the case. He didn’t face the weakest team in his group (Mizoram), and his last hundred was in the quarterfinal against Rajasthan.

Karun Nair smashes 88* in the semifinal

He’s done the magic once again. This time in the semifinal against Maharashtra. Entering in a great position, with Vidarbha 224/1, Karun Nair scored 88 off just 44 balls. He unfortunately couldn’t score his sixth hundred in the Vijay Hazare Trophy 2024-25. Had he done so, he would have equalled the world record for consecutive hundreds in List A history.

His hitting propelled Vidarbha to 380, virtually handing them the victory. Irrespective of the result, Nair’s done all he could. Whether this leads to something special for him and his team will be seen shortly. Vidarbha hasn’t reached the final of the Vijay Hazare Trophy yet. Will they do it courtesy of their captain, Karun Nair?
