With a spectacular half-century in just his second Twenty20 international match, Nitish Reddy made a strong statement about his entrance on the global scene. With three early wickets inside the powerplay, India was in a precarious situation. This is when the 21-year-old came up big.
Praise For Nitish Reddy
Reddy displayed excellent form early in the innings, batting patiently to allow the difficult phase to pass. He then broke free when presented with a free-hit opportunity, and he didn’t stop hitting the Bangladeshi bowlers thereafter, smashing them all over the field. India took the lead thanks to a 108-run partnership between Rinku Singh and the right-handed batsman for the fourth wicket.
He struck his first half-century off of just 27 balls, demonstrating his ability to cross the boundary at a whim. With seven sixes and four boundaries, he scored 74 runs off of 34 balls and looked to be in perfect form.
It was an extremely good knock. In addition to using his strength, he also looked for openings, which he did with relative ease. At one point, the Bangladeshi spinners opposing him appeared completely lost.

India Vs Bangladesh
When Nitish was a player with the SRH, who placed second in the IPL 2024, he attracted everyone’s attention with his all-around skill. With his powerful batting, the young Andhra player etched his mark in an SRH lineup that was full of stars. In the group stage encounter against Rajasthan Royals, the right-handed hitter stole the show with a 42-ball 76, an impressive knock that included eight sixes. He concluded the season with 303 runs. With the ball, he claimed three wickets as well.
