Maharaja T20 Trophy 2024 is now very close to its final match. The names of the finalist teams of the league are decided. Mysore Warriors will face Bengaluru Blasters in the final. This will be the second consecutive final for Mysore Warriors. At the same time, Bengaluru Blasters have reached the final for the first time. In this match, all eyes will be on the player who is hoping to return to Team India again. And, is also constantly trying for that. We are talking about Karun Nair, who wishes to return to India’s Test team again. But at the moment he is in the news because he has a chance to become the highest run-scorer in Maharaja T20 Trophy 2024.
Karun Nair hits most fours in Maharaja T20 Trophy
Karun Nair has become the batsman who has hit the most fours in the Maharaja T20 Trophy 2024. If the Mysore Warriors captain scores 14 more runs in the final against Bengaluru Blasters, he can also become the highest run-scorer in this league. Before the final match, Karun Nair has 494 runs in 11 matches with the help of 27 sixes and 52 fours. The 52 fours coming from his bat are the most by any batsman in the league. The number of fours may increase further after the final match.
14th run is necessary for Karun Nair
The highest run scorer in Maharaja T20 Trophy 2024 is currently Shivamogga Lions batsman Abhinav Manohar, who scored 507 runs in 10 matches with 52 sixes. Karun Nair cannot break Abhinav Manohar’s record of sixes. But he has a chance to become the highest run scorer in Maharaja T20 Trophy for the second consecutive time. And, this can be achieved by scoring 14 runs.
You can break your own record
Karun Nair was also the highest run scorer in the last season of Maharaja T20 Trophy. Last season, he scored 532 runs in 12 matches. If Karun scores 39 more runs in the final of this season, he can also break his record of most runs of last season.
Don’t miss the finals this time!
Mysore Warriors, captained by Karun Nair, had to face defeat in the final of Maharaja T20 Trophy last time against Hubli Tigers. This time they would not want to lose. Now it will also depend on how big a challenge Bengaluru Blasters present to them.
Desire to return to Team India again
Karun Nair made his Test debut for India in 2016 under the captaincy of Virat Kohli. He scored a triple century in his debut innings. But, after that big innings, he could not do anything special and his failure became the reason for his ouster. During the Maharaja T20 Trophy, Karun Nair told in an interview how desperate he is to return to the Indian Test team again? Now it remains to be seen when his desperation gets fulfilled?
