Nitish Reddy strikes seven sixes: With seven sixes and four boundaries in 34 balls, Nitish Kumar Reddy seemed to be in perfect form.
With a stunning half-century in just one more Twenty20 global match, Nitish Kumar Reddy made an authoritative claim about his entrance on the international scene. With three wickets taken inside the powerplay, India found itself in a precarious situation. This is when the youngster came up big.
Reddy showed excellent form early in the innings, batting quietly 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.
Nitish Reddy strikes seven sixes:
He struck his first half-century off of just 27 balls, demonstrating his ability to cross the boundary at 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.
