Do you think Karun Nair can successfully return to cricket test after an eight -year break?
“The dough that has the ability to score to run by playing ground shots is the one who plays all day. You must also have the ability to leave the balls.”

Nair, who scored a historical triple century against England in 2016, fought over the years, when he was overlooked despite a strong domestic record. Its return is considered to be a key part of the transition phase of India after retirement Virt Kohli and Rohit Sharma from the test cricket.KAIF also identified Sai Sudharsan as another dough in the form of predat-pujara and applauded his risk-free approach and versatile technique.“Sai Sudharsan, I saw it, looks like a complete dough. He is less risk, has solid defense, plays and quickly bowling very well. It’s a complete package,” Kaif said.“In a format like IPL, he scored by playing ground blows in all matches. I think it can be a future Pujara or Rahul Dravid.”

KAIF also offered its selection for the Indian fourth option of fast bowling in the first test, supported Nitish Reddy over the experienced Sharardul Thakur, and quoted Reddy Baging and recent exploitation of red balls.“I think Nitish Reddy will be the fourth fast pitch, because it will also bat on No. 8. He can come after the Jadej. In Australia he scored a century and can come and pick up one or two goals,” Kaif added.
