Nitish Reddy Reveals The Virat Kohli Connection Behind His Maiden Test Ton In Melbourne
India all-rounder Nitish Kumar Reddy revealed that a light-hearted dressing room banter with the talismanic Virat Kohli resulted in him getting the shoes gifted by the former skipper, which he wore when he hit his first Test century against Australia at the Melbourne Cricket Ground (MCG). “Back in the locker room, he (Kohli) once asked Sarfaraz (Khan), ‘Sarfu, tera size kya hai?' (Sarfaraz, what's your shoe size?), and he said, ‘Nine.' Then he turned to me, and I thought, ‘Oh my god, I have to guess this correctly,' because even if they weren't my size, I really wanted his shoes. I said, ‘10,' and he gave them to me. In the next match, I wore those shoes and scored a hundred!" said Reddy in a podcast on PUMA's Youtube channel on Thursday.
