We Need Players Like Jaiswal, Reddy Who Protect Their Wicket Like Life: Gavaskar
Nitish Kumar Reddy: After India’s defeat in the final Test match and their inability to retain the Border-Gavaskar Trophy, cricketing legend Sunil Gavaskar has accessed the team’s performance and opined that young players like Yashasvi Jaiswal and Nitish Reddy, who are "hungry to earn a name for India" are needed in the team.
Jaiswal has amassed 391 runs in five Tests, out of which 161 came in his brilliant second innings knock in the series opener in Perth, where India won by 295 runs. However, he had a brief period of struggle before scoring 82 and 84 in the Melbourne Test.
On the other hand, Reddy scored 298 runs in nine innings across five matches. He started off with handy knocks of 41, 38 not out on his Test debut. He further scored 42, 42 before bettering it with a maiden Test century in Melbourne, providing a much-needed contribution from the lower order.
