Historic innings dedicated to father

Indian all-rounder Nitish Kumar Reddy dedicated it to his father by scoring the first Test century of his career in the fourth Test match against Australia. With this memorable inning, he rescued the Indian team from trouble and also raised hopes of saving the fourth Test.

Emotional message after century

Nitish shared two special posts on social media after the end of the third day’s play. In the first post he wrote for his father:
“This is for you, Dad.”
In the second post, he praised Mohammed Siraj for his role and wrote:
“I also have faith in Siraj Bhai.”
These posts won the hearts of his fans and team members.

Completed century with the help of Siraj

Nitish’s century did not come easily. When he was on the score of 97, Washington Sundar returned to the pavilion. After this Jasprit Bumrah also got out without opening the account. In such a situation, Nitish was unbeaten on a personal score of 99, and India’s ninth wicket had fallen.

In this critical situation, Mohammad Siraj saved his wicket on three important balls, which gave Nitish a chance to play the next over. After this he completed his first Test century and there was an atmosphere of celebration in the Indian camp.

Celebrated in ‘Salar’ style

Nitish celebrated in ‘Salar’ style after completing his century, which was a way of paying respect to his father Mutyala. His father was watching this historic innings sitting behind the dugout of the Indian team. This moment was very special for Nitish and his family.

Success from Perth to Melbourne

Nitish Reddy played his first test match in Perth during Australia tour. He proved his ability to the selectors and the audience by playing two brilliant innings there. This century in Melbourne is a testament to his hard work and dedication.

Reddy: Hope for India’s future

Nitish Kumar Reddy has proved with his performances that he is an invaluable asset for Indian cricket. His innings helped the team reach 358 runs in reply to Australia’s first innings score of 474 runs. India still trail by 116 runs, but his unbeaten innings has given the team an opportunity to fight.
