Stuart Clark, a former Australian cricket player, praised Washington Sundar and Nitish Kumar Reddy’s collaboration.
On Day 3 of the fourth Border-Gavaskar Test in Melbourne, former Australian cricketer Stuart Clark praised the collaboration between Washington Sundar and Nitish Kumar Reddy for helping India rally from a vulnerable position. On Saturday, when India was battling at 221/7, Sundar and Reddy’s pivotal 127-run partnership gave the innings much-needed steadiness and cut the lead to 116 runs. Sundar’s rough knock came to a conclusion when he got Nathan Lyon to slip and left for a solid fifty off 162 balls, including a single boundary. Even though he was dismissed, the combination greatly increased India’s chances of winning the game.
In an interview with ANI, Stuart Clark discussed the cooperation, stating, “India has established a good partnership.” Reddy and Washington are hitting well. Because they are coming closer to the Australian total, they are forcing the Australians to fight hard for their wicket, which adds intrigue to the match.Clark also discussed his feelings over the earlier removal of Rishabh Pant in the innings. He said, “You have to take the good with the bad,” after giving the matter some thought. When it occurred, it was a major problem since India had to fight. He’s hammered that shot into the crowd numerous times, as we’ve witnessed. You’re going to make mistakes occasionally, and sadly, he made a mistake today.Despite being behind by 116 runs at the end of Day 3, India managed to stay in the game because to the efforts of Sundar and Reddy, reaching 358/9. As India attempts to go closer to the Australian total, the game is still in a delicate balance.
India returned to the match at Melbourne on Saturday when Nitish Kumar Reddy, an Indian batsman, hammered his first international century on Day Three of the Boxing Day Test of the Border-Gavaskar Trophy against Australia.
Nitish Kumar Reddy scored his first international century in spectacular fashion during the day’s last session, when he was 99 and smashed the ball towards the mid-on fielder for a four.
