Young all-rounder Nitish Kumar Reddy, who is being seen as the successor to Hardik Pandya, has faced another injury problem. Captain Shubman Gill revealed that Nitish Kumar Reddy will not play the second match against the Afghans due to his quad issues.
“Three changes: Prince made his debut, Nitish had a problem with his quad, so he is out, and Kuldeep is in, Jaiswal is in,” said Shubman Gill at the time of the toss.
Meanwhile, BCCI in its update revealed that Reddy could not play due to pain in his left thigh.
