Reddy Shines at Lord’s, Credits Cummins & Morkel for Bowling Boost
Nitish Kumar Reddy’s impressive bowling spell on Day 1 of the third Test at Lord’s has left many impressed, and it’s not hard to understand why. The fast-bowling all-rounder, who bowled just six overs in the second Test at Edgbaston, made a significant impact with the ball in the third Test, picking up two wickets and conceding just 15 runs.
Reddy’s impressive performance with the ball has been a welcome boost for the Indian team, which has been struggling to find consistency with their bowling attack. And, as it turns out, Reddy owes a big part of his improvement to his IPL captain, Pat Cummins, and India bowling coach, Morne Morkel.
In an interview with cricket.com, Reddy credited Cummins and Morkel for helping him improve his bowling. “Pat Cummins, my IPL captain, has been a huge influence on my bowling. He’s always been very supportive and has given me some great tips,” Reddy said. “Morne Morkel, our bowling coach, has also been fantastic. He’s been working with me individually and has helped me improve my technique and fitness.”
Reddy’s improvement with the ball is not just a result of the guidance he’s received from his coaches, but also his own hard work and dedication. “I’ve been working really hard on my bowling, trying to get more consistent and accurate,” Reddy said. “I’ve been practicing a lot, both in the gym and on the field, and it’s paying off.”
Reddy’s impressive bowling spell on Day 1 of the third Test was a significant boost for the Indian team, which has been struggling to find consistency with their bowling attack. The Indian bowling attack has been criticized for being too reliant on Jasprit Bumrah and Rishabh Pant, and Reddy’s performance has shown that there are other bowlers in the team who can make a significant impact.
Reddy’s wickets were crucial in restricting England’s batting to 284 runs, and his performance has given the Indian team a strong platform to build on. Reddy’s bowling partner, Shardul Thakur, also had an impressive day, picking up three wickets and conceding just 25 runs.
Reddy’s improvement with the ball is not just a result of his own hard work and dedication, but also the support he’s received from his coaches and teammates. “The whole team has been very supportive of me,” Reddy said. “We’ve been working together as a unit, and it’s been great to see everyone contributing to the team’s success.”
Reddy’s impressive bowling spell on Day 1 of the third Test has set the tone for the rest of the game, and the Indian team will be hoping that he can continue to make a significant impact with the ball. With the series level at 1-1, the Indian team will be looking to take advantage of their strong position and win the series.
Overall, Reddy’s impressive bowling spell on Day 1 of the third Test has been a significant boost for the Indian team, and his credit to Cummins and Morkel for his improvement is a testament to the importance of good coaching and guidance. As the series continues, fans will be hoping to see more of Reddy’s impressive bowling, and the Indian team will be counting on him to make a significant impact.
