Karun Nair

Karun Nair made his 25th first-class hundred to take Karnataka to a strong position against Goa on the rain-hit second day of their Ranji Trophy Elite Group B match here on Sunday.

Karun, who was omitted from the India Test squad after a middling series in England recently, made an unbeaten 174 off 267 balls to announce his return to the run-making ways. It helped Karnataka make 371.

Elsewhere, Tamil Nadu's Pradosh Ranjan Paul (201 not out) completed his maiden double-century while upcoming left-arm pacer Gurjapneet Singh (4-34) took a hat-trick against Nagaland in Dimapur.

Tamil Nadu declared the innings at 512-3. In reply, Nagaland were reduced to 150-4.
