4th Test: We Cannot Forget This Day In Our Life, Says Nitish Kumar Reddy’s Father
Nitish Kumar Reddy: December 28, 2024 will forever be an unforgettable day in the life of Mutyala Reddy, as his son Nitish Kumar Reddy stood up to be the hero for India in a tough situation by hitting an unbeaten 105 - his maiden Test century on day three of Boxing Day Test at the Melbourne Cricket Ground.
As Nitish unfurled a lofted on-drive off Scott Boland to get his first Test hundred in 171 balls, Mutyala, seated in the stands with a prayer on his face, was teary-eyed and thanked God with heartful folded hands, as he got congratulations from everyone near him.
“For our family, it’s a special day and we cannot forget this day in our life. He has been performing well since the age group of 14-15 and now in international cricket, it’s a very special feeling. I was very tensed (when Nitish was on 99). Only the last wicket was remaining. Thankfully Siraj managed to survive,” said Mutyala to Adam Gilchrist for broadcaster Fox Sports.
