Jasprit Bumrah is currently nursing an injury and is out of action. The fast-bowler is tipped to make a comeback in January when India tours New Zealand. Karun Nair, on the other hand, last repressed India in a Test match in March 2017 against Australia. The right-handed batsman is, however, actively involved in domestic cricket and has been named as the captain of Karnataka team in the upcoming Ranji Trophy season.
