It was a memorable game for Nitish Kumar Reddy. In the absence of Hardik Pandya, Reddy is now the only seam bowling all-rounder in the present ODI team. After going wicket-less for four matches since making his debut in the One Day Internationals, he claimed his first wicket yesterday, against Afghanistan in the fifth ODI match of his career.
Reddy got his first wicket in ODIs
For the second wicket, the Indian all-rounder clinched Mohammad Nabi. In the rain-threatened match in Dharamshala, Nitish Kumar Reddy returned with a couple of wickets in his 4-over spell for 31 runs only.
Gurnoor Brar and Harsh Dubey, two debutants for India, were brilliant with the ball yesterday as both of them claimed 3 wickets each.
Shubman Gill praised his bowlers
“Very impressive, upfront, how Gurnoor bowled, brilliant pace and the way he was swinging the ball, the kind of length he bowled consistently, and even Harsh as well, after I think in the first over, he went for 16-17 runs, and the way he pulled the game back, trusted himself and kept tossing the ball up. It was very impressive,” Shubman Gill said.
Nitish Kumar Reddy also improved his bowling. During the IPL 2026 season with the Sunrisers Hyderabad, the seamer’s improved pace was visible in the season. With improved pace, Reddy is now capable of delivering 140 KPMH deliveries.
