“Kya hua tera vaad? (What happened to your promise)”
“Woh Kasam Woh Iraad? (What happened to your promise and intention)”
This Bollywood iconic song could be the one that Nitish Kumar Reddy buzzes when they see Shubman Gill, Gautam Gambhir and the Indian team of the team. After all, before the test in Delhi, it almost seemed to be another boy from the poster test. SHUBMAN GILL, Indian captain, came out and did it as if Nitish would be one of the key artists in the coming years.
“So we want to give him so much game time, especially in India and we want to help him. And according to the match and in a situation where we feel it can organize order or down the order, we will have it in our minds,” Gill said.
Probably the biggest show of the intention came from Indian assistant coach Ryan Ten Goschat, who said that one of the medium -term goals was to build new versatile seams, especially with regard to foreign tours.
“One such medium -term goals is to develop versatile seams for India, because it is very important to leave for tours that we have covered with this position.”
“We didn’t get too well at Nitish last week, so I think it’s a very good opportunity to give Nitish to another to go and not change the team’s balance,” said ten.
Indian vs vs wi, 2. Test: Main points | Match Scorecard
It is no secret that India has been looking for Hardik Pandya-Esque Fast-Bowling versatile since the 32-year-old left the scene with a red ball. The journey took them to SharDula Thakura, and although the Lord was doing his work, he seemed not to fit.
Then came the young, breathing versatile from Andhra, who caught the attention of everyone with his fearless launch and smart bowling. He was watching the Indian test team quickly and in Australia he became a bat and ball in Australia.
His English tour was shortened due to injury, but at the time he got in these conditions, he managed. So everyone assumed that Nitish would have a big role in the Western India series. What happened is the opposite.
He turned once, where he scored 43 out of 54 and missed a large score. When the bowling occurred, he had a chance to turn the arm to four exceeding on four shifts.
On the left insufficiently used
In the 11 matches played by the hardik in the test cricket, he was well used. All-Rounder sometimes launched on No. 6, No. 7 and No. 8, produced four fifties and a brilliant hundred. One of the 1950s was 93, which scored in South Africa under difficult conditions.
During this time, with the ball, the hardik bowed a total of 156 overs and raised 17 goals. Although we could expect a larger number in the gate column, the amount of break hard is significant.
Now that you look at Nitish’s career, he played eight matches and scored 386 hundreds of hundreds in Australia. He detonated all the way from No. 5 to No. 9, but its use could be much more like a hardship.
With the intention of having versatile seams, Nitish’s numbers show that it was insufficiently used. In nine games he bowed in nine games and raised eight goals.
Delhi’s test was the best chance
Now we can say that Nitish did not take advantage of his chance with Bat on No. 5, but India had the opportunity to use it more efficiently in the second shifts of West India. When the front lifts looked tired and worn out, Nitish could provide another dimension. India bowed in both shifts a total of 200 pluses and neither got. Even Yashasvi Jaiswal got one.
Probably the reason why Dodda Ganesh left angry using a versatile.
Aakash Chopra had previously tweeted and said he found that he was confused to see Nitish in the game.
“NKR not bowling only in 200+ overs India in Delhi is confused. #Indvwi,” wrote former Opener India on X.
“To be righteous, I’m actually a little disappointed. I was expecting a little better plans. If you are in the game ahead, you want to show it in everything, and I haven’t seen it. The attack will not only be playing five pitchers. You had a sixth bowling option
“For the arrows you have, the field location you have for them, how can you give singles so easily?
While India has a chance to solve these things against South Africa in the next task, he will feel like a missed chance against West India. With greater challenges that appear both in India and abroad, the final product will be essential for the Indian Hope of WTC.
Nitish is a rough diamond at the moment that needs polishing. But if the lapidarist decides not to do it, then the diamond is as good as its main form – carbon.
