**Hyderabad, India** – Karun Nair, the former Indian Test cricketer who famously scored a triple-century against England in 2016, is making headlines once again. The 33-year-old Vidarbha captain is currently dominating the Vijay Hazare Trophy, amassing a hat-trick of centuries in as many matches.
Nair’s latest century, a 112-run knock off 101 balls against Uttar Pradesh on January 3rd, saw him surpass James Franklin’s record for the most runs scored while remaining not out in List A cricket. His current tally stands at an impressive 542 runs, achieved in four consecutive unbeaten innings. His previous scores include 112* against Jammu & Kashmir, 44* against Chhattisgarh, 163* against Chandigarh, and 111* against Tamil Nadu. These remarkable performances have led Vidarbha to victory in all five matches played so far.
After going unsold in the previous two IPL seasons, Nair was recently picked up by Delhi Capitals for ₹50 lakh. His resurgence in the Vijay Hazare Trophy is sure to reignite interest in his cricketing career.
