Sunrisers Hyderabad registered a clinical victory in the game against Punjab Kings last night almost entirely thanks to Nitish Kumar Reddy who played a gem of an inninngs This has led to a question on social media about who this Nitish Kumar Reddy is and how he has come limelight.
Firstly, Nitish comes from a humble background and his father had to quit his job to train Nitish in cricket. The youngster had a prolific first-class season with the Andhra team and then followed it up with a fine Vijay Merchant trophy as he was one of the top scorers of the season.
SRH first bought Nitish in 2023 and then retained him for the 2024 season. He has now become a bright young talent for SRH at a very young age of 20. He is billed to be the next big thing not just in franchise cricket but could be looked upon for the Indian national team as well.
