Sachin Tendulkar became a fan of the player who was out of Team India for 9 years, gave a big statement before the announcement of the squad for the Champions Trophy

Sachin Tendulkar Praises Karun Nair: The batsman who has impressed everyone the most in the Vijay Hazare Trophy 2024-25 is Karun Nair. Karun Nair is looking in very dangerous form while captaining Vidarbha in the tournament. He has scored 752 runs in 8 matches at an average of 752. This is the reason why he has attracted everyone's attention. The name of Lord of Cricket Sachin Tendulkar has also been included in this. Tendulkar put out a tweet praising Nair just a day before Team India's squad for the Champions Trophy was announced.

Let us tell you that Team India's chief selector Ajit Agarkar will announce the Indian team's squad for the Champions Trophy in a press conference on January 18 in Mumbai and during this time Rohit Sharma will also be present with him. Now it remains to be seen who gets a place in this 15-member squad.

On Friday, Tendulkar took to Twitter to praise Nair and wrote, “Making 752 runs with 5 centuries in 7 innings is not an ordinary thing. This kind of performance doesn't happen just like that. It takes focus and hard work.” Nair should keep moving forward and take advantage of every opportunity.

Scoring 752 runs in 7 innings with 5 centuries is nothing short of extraordinary, @karun126. Performances like these don’t just happen, they come from immense focus and hard work. Keep going strong and make every opportunity count!
