5 areas of concern for Virat Kohli after the Bangladesh Test

India play their first Test against Australia on February 23rd

#2 What does the future hold for Karun Nair in the Indian Test team?

Karun Nair did not feature in the last Test against Bangladesh

Karun Nair will be asking himself what else he has to do, to get a place in Indian team? The Karnataka batsman has an impressive first-class record and then scored 300 against England in Chennai. Even after scoring a triple hundred, Nair isn’t assured of a spot in the Test playing XI.

Kohli and the team management have to fit Nair somewhere in the side and have to ensure that he feels wanted and that his confidence levels don’t drop. Of course, this is easier said than done. The middle order is settled and Ajinkya Rahane has once again proved his worth by scoring runs against Bangladesh.

Nair at some point deserves a game, but whom he replaces is the tougher task.
