While the Aussies and everyone has been keeping an eye for Rishabh Pant, Jasprit Bumrah, Skipper Rohit Sharma and particularly Virat Kohli, Indian Bowling Coach Morne Morkel has threw another name to watch out for and it is the all-rounder Nitish Kumar Reddy.

The Kangaroos have been consistently stressing on names and even wrote about Virat Kohli’s every century in Australia but Morne Morkel thinks he has something more in the bag for them.
“Definitely an eye to keep an eye for in the series”
Morkel said. He also added
“He is one of the young guys. He’ll be one of the guys who can hold one end for us, especially for the first couple of days. He is a wicket to wicket bowler. Any team in the world would want an all-rounder who can help pacers. It’ll be on Jasprit how he uses them.”
If one looks at Nitish’s performance, they might think he is a bit undercooked for such prestigious matches. In his previous 4 innings in India A vs Australia A he scored just 71 runs with 38 being his top score and only 1 wicket in these 4 innings.
