Nitish Kumar Reddy Backstory & His Family’s Role In His Success

Nitish’s journey as a cricket lover started when he was just a child. When Nitish was 5 years old, he used to play with his beloved plastic bat and regularly visited the Hindustan Zinc grounds to watch the senior cricket players play.

This is the statement that Nitish made after being asked about his father’s contribution to his success: “I was 12 or 13 when my dad quit his job. He was transferred to Udaipur. He analysed the cricket there and was afraid of the politics that might affect my game. He quit his job and dedicated his time to my game. Relatives questioned his decisions. He is the first person who believed in me”.
