Nitish Kumar Reddy made history today by scoring his first Test century at the iconic Melbourne Cricket Ground. At just 21 years old, he became the third-youngest Indian to achieve this milestone in Australia. His brilliant knock came at a crucial time, helping India recover from a tough position against a strong Australian
team.
India was struggling with seven wickets down and still trailing by over 150 runs. Nitish stepped up under pressure and formed a key partnership of 105 runs with Washington Sundar. Together, they stabilized the innings and helped India cross the follow-on mark. Nitish’s calm and steady batting gave the team a fighting chance in the match.
