It is said that there is delay but no injustice in God's house. This seems to be applicable to the player who was shown the way out of Team India by Virat Kohli under his captaincy. We are talking about Karun Nair, who came into Team India 8 years ago, and also made a mark by scoring a triple century on his Test debut, but then the failure of the next few matches made him disillusioned with the then captain Virat Kohli and he had to look for a way out of the team. Since then Karun Nair could not come back into Team India, but now the world is definitely acknowledging his leadership.

Karun Nair has done this by making Mysore Warriors the champion of Maharaja T20 Trophy under his captaincy.

They missed the title last year, this time the captain did not give up

Mysore Warriors missed out on winning the Maharaja T20 Trophy title last year. They had to face defeat in the final. But this time, captain Karun Nair left no stone unturned to make his team win. He led his team from the front in every aspect, be it captaincy or batting. Amidst all this, Karun Nair kept aside the mistakes of last year and was determined to make his team the champion.

Karun Nair made a blast with the bat, broke previous records

Now when the captain is like this, the team will definitely make a blast.

Mysore Warriors have done the same. They have donned the garb of champions by defeating Bengaluru Blasters in the final of Maharaja T20 Trophy 2024, in which captain Karun Nair played an important role. He did that job with the bat, which not only helped the team win the title but also broke all the previous records.

Karun Nair's team scored a mountainous score in the final

In the final of Maharaja T20 Trophy, Mysore Warriors batted first and scored 207 runs for 4 wickets in 20 overs.

This was a big score considering the pressure of the final, in which the contribution of opener SU Karthik, captain Karun Nair and middle order batsman Manoj Bhandhage was excellent. Among these three, Karthik and Karun Nair scored half centuries. Karthik scored 71 runs in 44 balls, which included 3 sixes and 7 fours. Karun Nair scored 66 runs in 45 balls with the help of 3 sixes and 5 fours. Apart from these, Manoj played an explosive innings of 44 runs in just 13 balls with the help of 5 sixes.

Bengaluru Blasters lost, Mysore Warriors won by 45 runs

In a high pressure match like the final, what was bound to happen happened in front of a mountainous target of 208 runs.

The Bangalore Blasters team fell apart and lost the match by a huge margin of 45 runs. Bangalore Blasters scored just 162 runs for 8 wickets in 20 overs.

Not only captaincy, how did he lead the team with the bat? Know that

The 66 runs scored by captain Karun Nair in the victory of Mysore Warriors only contributed to the victory in the final. But, he has been playing such innings that are useful for his team throughout the Maharaja T20 Trophy 2024.

The result of that is that he has created history by breaking the previous records related to runs in this T20 league.

Karun Nair, while leading the Mysore Warriors in batting under his captaincy, has scored 560 runs in 12 matches at an average of 56 and a strike rate of 181.22, which includes 30 sixes and 58 fours. During this, he has scored 5 half-centuries and 1 century. 560 runs are the highest runs scored by any batsman in the history of Maharaja T20 Trophy. Earlier this record was of 532 runs, which was made by Karun Nair in the last season. But, then he could not make his team win the final. This time he also broke the record of runs and also linked his team with the title victory.
