Nitish Kumar Reddy ki cricket kahani: Kya ho raha hai bhai?
Arre bhai, Nitish Kumar Reddy ki cricket career abhi thoda shaky hai! New Zealand ke khilaf match mein sirf 20 runs aur 0-13 ka bowling figure dekh ke aisa lag raha tha jaise koi chhota bachcha cricket khel raha ho! Assistant coach Ryan bola, 'Beta, mauka milta hai toh chamak jao!' Lekin Reddy bhai ki batting average toh sirf 10.30 hai, toh sochiye zara, kya scene chal raha hai inka future team mein!

BCCI spills the tea on Hardik's ODI snub for NZ series
BCCI spills the tea on Hardik's ODI snub for NZ series
Alright, squad, BCCI just served up the scoop on Hardik Pandya getting benched for the ODI series against New Zealand kicking off January 11. Why? Because he’s not cleared to bowl 10 overs yet, so they’re giving him a breather for the T20 World Cup prep. But hold up, he’s been smashing it with 142 runs in three innings! Nitish Kumar Reddy is still in the mix, though.

Kris Srikkanth rips apart Nitish Reddy's ODI selection move
Folks, Kris Srikkanth is raising a huge red flag! He’s questioning the incredible decision to bring in Nitish Kumar Reddy for the ODI face-off against New Zealand on January 11. Two ODIs, just 27 runs, and a bowling economy that screams disaster! Why not Axar Patel, a true champion? This could spell big trouble for the Men in Blue!
