This paper aims to introduce the notions of deferred Nörlund statistical Riemann integrability and statistical deferred Nörlund Riemann summability for sequence of real-valued functions and to apply them in Korovkin-type new approximations. First, we present an inclusion theorem to understand the connection between these new notions. Then, based on these potential notions we establish new versions of Korovkin-type theorems with three algebraic test functions. Finally, we compute an example, under the consideration of a positive linear operator in association with the Bernstein polynomials to exhibit the effectiveness of our findings.
