Nitish Kumar Reddy was excellent in the recently concluded series against Afghanistan. He returned from a long injury and delivered a good performance with the ball for the Men in Blue at the Arun Jaitley Stadium. Some former cricketers felt that he could be a good backup option for Hardik Pandya, who has recently been out of action due to injury.
“We keep taking Hardik Pandya’s name again and again, but Nitish Kumar Reddy cannot match Hardik Pandya, at least for now. What happens because of that is that our expectations will be that Nitish Kumar Reddy will bat and bowl just like Hardik Pandya does,” Sharma said on Cricbuzz.
"We should keep our expectations low": Mohit Sharma tells to keep low expectations on Nitish Kumar Reddy
Mohit said: “I think that is not fair. We should keep our expectations low. His way of batting is different. He is kind of a batter who can play the big shots once he gets set, rather than hitting a six from the first ball itself. So, if we set our expectations that way, then we are wrong. He should be used according to his talent.”
Nitish Reddy, on the other hand, has started to develop as a cricketer and has been better at batting than bowling. He needs to work a lot more on his bowling skills to reach Pandya’s level, as the latter has delivered match-winning spells in major tournaments and in crucial times as well. The Hyderabad all-rounder would need to showcase his skills in West Indies ODIs.
"He is a bowler who can take a wicket in his first over": Ajinkya Rahane on Nitish Reddy's skill set
“I think he is a bowler who can take a wicket in his first over. He has that skill set, and the ball comes out nicely from his hand. He is a little faster than we expect, and the ball skids off the wicket. A captain has a good option when he has such an all-rounder who can bowl both with new and old ball,” observed Rahane on his YouTube channel.
