Nitish Reddy Shatters Historic Record With Australia Thrashing, Becomes 1st Ever Indian To...
Nitish Kumar Reddy, with the Indian cricket team in dire straits against Australia on the third day of the fourth Test in Melbourne, turned out to be India's saviour with a gritty half-century at the No. 8 position on Saturday. In the course of the innings, Reddy achieved a mega first in Indian cricket. His tally of sixes against Australia in this series is 8. He is the first Indian to hit eight sixes in a single series in Australia. Now, he is also the holder of the record joint-most sixes by a visiting batter in a series in Australia. Before him, Michael Vaughan (2002-03 Ashes) and Chris Gayle (2009-10) hit eight sixes in a single series.
