Nitish Kumar Reddy Teases Mohammed Siraj Over Iconic "Only Believe In Jassi Bhai" Meme. Post Viral

India all-rounder Nitish Kumar Reddy thanked teammate Mohammed Siraj after the pacer played a big hand in the youngster registering his maiden Test century in the ongoing 4th Test against Australia on Saturday. For the unversed, Reddy was unbeaten on 99 when Siraj, India's tail-ender, walked out to bat following Jasprit Bumrah's dismissal. Australia captain Pat Cummins dismissed Jasprit Bumrah for a duck on the third ball of the 114th over, raising doubts over Reddy's century. Siraj was the final India batter to walk out to the middle and he needed to survive three balls from Cummins' over before Reddy could have the strike back.

Virat Kohli At Fault For Yashasvi Jaiswal Run-Out? Sunil Gavaskar Says "Not Really Necessary..."

Indian batting great Sunil Gavaskar and former Australia opener Justin Langer on Friday said Virat Kohli and Yashasvi Jaiswal could have avoided attempting the "risky" single that led to the latter's run-out, giving Australia a potentially decisive breakthrough in the fourth Test in Melbourne. Jaiswal, who made a breezy 118-ball 82 on the second day of the game, was way short of his crease after a mix-up with Kohli (36) while attempting a quick single. "It would have been a quick run, and somebody like Virat Kohli would definitely have made it. But the thing was, he looked at the fielder. When you look at the fielder, when you turn, you've lost that vital second. Your balance is completely off. And it would have been a tight run," Gavaskar told Star Sports.

"When You're 36, 37 Years Old...": Sunil Gavaskar's Brutal Verdict On Rohit Sharma's Form

Indian cricket legend Sunil Gavaskar raised concerns over Rohit Sharma's diminishing reflexes, suggesting that age might be catching up with the Indian skipper after his lazy dismissal in the ongoing Boxing Day Test against Australia on Friday. Gavaskar highlighted flaws in the 37-year-old's footwork, which have become more apparent during his struggles in the ongoing Border-Gavaskar Trophy. Rohit's decision to return to the opening slot in the fourth Test match of the Border-Gavaskar Trophy, partnering with Yashasvi Jaiswal and relegating KL Rahul to No. 3, failed to yield results.

"Pathetic, Never Happened In History": Ex-BCCI Selector Brutally Roasts Rohit Sharma

Former BCCI chief selector MSK Prasad has criticised India captain Rohit Sharma for his captaincy and batting failures. Prasad's remarks came while on commentary duty during Day 2 of the ongoing 4th Test against Australia, with Rohit registering another low score in India's first innings. Rohit managed just three runs as he was dismissed by opposition captain Pat Cummins for the fifth time in his Test career. Prasad, who was part of the selection committee from September 2016 to March 2020, also said that Rohit has not been "proactive" as a captain too, labelling India's recent series lost to New Zealand as "pathetic".

4th Test, Day 3: Gutsy Nitish Reddy's Maiden Ton Keeps India Afloat vs Australia

Nitish Reddy, an unknown entity in red ball cricket before the start of Border-Gavaskar series, virtually bailed India out with his dogged maiden Test century in Melbourne on Saturday, severely denting Australia's hopes of winning the Boxing Day contest. Reddy's unbeaten 105 took India to 358 for nine, still 116 runs short of Australia's first innings score of 474 as rain brought an early end to the third day's play. With the flat MCG deck not offering much to the bowlers, saving the Test match shouldn't be a big deal for India. Reddy, easily India's 'find of the series', played a pivotal role in visitors' fightback.
