Former Team India cricketer Aakash Chopra said that Karun Nair has fallen short of making the most out of the second chance cricket has given him.

Previously, in 2022, Nair took to X and shared a tweet which read, 'Dear cricket, give me one more chance'. Later, during the IPL 2025 match against Mumbai Indians, Delhi Capitals' Nair played a knock of 89 runs off 40 balls. His knock included 12 boundaries and five maximums. Despite his heroics, the side suffered a 12-run loss against the 'Paltan'.
