NEW DELHI: All-rounder Nitish Kumar Reddy showcased his prowess with the bat, playing a big part in guiding Sunrisers Hyderabad to victory against formidable Rajasthan Royals on Thursday. The young all-rounder's stellar performance drew accolades from cricketing pundits and teammates alike.
Former India batter Mohammad Kaif, speaking on Star Sports, lauded Reddy's classy shot-making ability, especially against experienced bowlers like Yuzvendra Chahal. "Reaching there by using the shoulders and then smacking it straight for a six is not an easy task," he remarked. "Inka naam sunenge aap, bhavishya mai bahut sunenge [You will hear his name; you will hear it a lot in the future]."
