Mohit Sharma cautions from comparing Nitish Reddy with Hardik Pandya
Nitish Kumar Reddy, an all-rounder, has taken six wickets in India's recent T20Is against Afghanistan. The player had been out of the squad due to injury but returned and initially looked rusty, finding his rhythm later. Comparisons have been made between Nitish and another fast-bowling all-rounder, Hardik Pandya, who is currently absent.
Former cricketer Mohit Sharma cautioned against such comparisons, stating that Nitish cannot replicate Hardik's performance at the moment. Sharma argued that expectations for Nitish should be managed, as the players have different batting styles and that Nitish should be utilized based on his unique talents. Another former cricketer praised Nitish's bowling, highlighting his ability to take wickets with both the new and old ball, making him a valuable asset for captains.
