Nitish is the only proper all-rounder: Deep Dasgupta
Deep Dasgupta was quoted as saying on ESPNcricinfo, "That's a very valid point, how we perceive the impact of the all-rounder. That is changing, and I hope that keeps changing, and next season the role of the all-rounder is recognized more as we go forward."
The former Indian cricketer explained that many IPL teams now prefer using extra specialist batters or bowlers instead of depending on all-rounders because of the IPL’s Impact Player rule. So, genuine all-rounders are getting fewer chances, and their role has become more difficult.
Nitish is giving SRH perfect team balance
Dasgupta also feels players like Reddy help teams play more fearless cricket. Since he can bowl his full quota if needed, Sunrisers Hyderabad gets the freedom to include an extra batter in the playing XI. And he feels that flexibility has become a big advantage for SRH this season.
"So, you literally are looking at almost nine batters then. If you start with five bowlers, that’s where the all-rounders, somebody like Nitish, are so, so important. So, you can actually get an extra batter in there knowing very well that this guy can give you four overs."
