Nitish Kumar Reddy: India’s all-rounder and the late-chase partnership
BCCI lists Reddy as an all-rounder; he made 26 during the 69-run seventh-wicket stand that helped India chase New Zealand’s target.

Player role and record
BCCI identifies Reddy as an all-rounder and records his international debuts across formats. That role can give a team options in batting and bowling, although workload varies by match.
Use official player profiles for debut details and scorecards for individual performances. One innings cannot predict a player’s future place in the team.
A contribution under pressure
Reuters reported that Reddy scored 26 during a 69-run partnership with Tilak Varma from 30 balls. The stand came after India had slipped to 112/6 while chasing 180/5.
The partnership reduced the target without losing another wicket. In limited-overs cricket, a quick late partnership can change the balance of required runs and wickets.
How to follow an all-rounder
A balanced profile looks at batting, bowling, fielding and the role a player is asked to perform. A match with a batting contribution should not be described as a bowling performance.
BCCI’s profile and match centre are a starting point for tracking Reddy’s role and results. Check official team announcements for current selection news.
