Pat Cummins performed brilliantly under the captaincy of Sunrisers Hyderabad in IPL 2024. The SRH team managed to reach the final this season, where they had to face defeat at the hands of KKR. Although all the players of SRH performed well this season, but one player who impressed everyone with his performance was Nitish Kumar Reddy.
His brilliant performance in the IPL 2024 season for Sunrisers Hyderabad caught the attention of the BCCI selectors. After this, he was included in Team India for the first time for the Zimbabwe tour. However, fate had something else in store and he was ruled out of IPL 2024 due to a hernia injury. In this way, the wait for his debut for India increased further.
Nitish Reddy made a big statement about Pat Cummins
Meanwhile, during a recent interview, Nitish Reddy talked about playing under the captaincy of Pat Cummins. In an interview with News18 CricketNext, Nitish Reddy said that, Pat joined just three days before the IPL. Meanwhile, I did well in the practice games and the coach was really impressed. But I wanted the captain to know.
I said, ‘Does he know how I play and how I see the game?’ But when he joined, he said, ‘Nitish, you are playing very well.” The all-rounder was surprised to learn that Cummins had watched his batting videos on YouTube. The Australian captain’s move boosted Reddy’s confidence immensely and strengthened his belief in his own abilities.
The young all-rounder further added, “I was kind of shocked that how did he know about my batting? He didn’t see me in the practice sessions, so I asked him about it, and he said that he saw my batting videos on YouTube and appreciated my talent. So this is really a kind of encouragement for me.”
