IND vs BAN: Team India’s squad has been announced for the T20 series against Bangladesh starting from 6 October. The dominance of young players has been seen in the team selected for this series. Meanwhile, BCCI has given an opportunity to a player who can become a perfect replacement for Hardik Pandya in the coming times. This player had performed Kamala in the IPL played this year. This player is none other than Nitish Kumar Reddy. Nitish Kumar Reddy has got a chance for the first time in Team India’s squad. Although he got a chance in the squad during the series played against Zimbabwe, but due to injury, BCCI withdrew his name from the squad before the start of the series.
Suryakumar Yadav can give a chance to debut
Indian T20 team captain Suryakumar Yadav can include him in the playing 11 during the three matches to be played against Bangladesh. There was a time when Team India did not have any other player like Hardik Pandya, but this time if we pay attention to the squad, Nitish Reddy and Shivam Dubey are two such players who will not disturb the absence of Hardik Pandya. This is a matter of concern for Hardik Pandya. Although BCCI had tried such players many times before, but no one did the work that Hardik Pandya has done for the team. However, looking at Nitish Kumar Reddy’s performance in IPL, it is clear that he can do very well.
Such was the performance in IPL
Nitish Kumar Reddy can prove to be a perfect find for Team India. He performed amazingly with the bat in IPL 2024. Where he scored 303 runs in 13 matches at an average of 33.67 and strike rate of 142.92. He could not do anything special in bowling, but it is expected that with time he will improve his bowling also. Nitish would like to make full use of this opportunity in Team India. If we take a look at the schedule of Team India against Bangladesh, the first T20 will be played in Gwalior on 06 October, the second T20 in Delhi on 09 October and the match will be played in Hyderabad on 12 October.
