Nitish Reddy Begins Rehab For Knee Injury At BCCI COE: Report 

Nitish Kumar Reddy became a breakout star in the Indian Premier League with his performance for the Sunrisers Hyderabad. His skills earned him a call-up for the Indian Cricket Team in T20Is and Test cricket.

However, injuries have often held him back from making a big impact in the game. Nitish Reddy looked in proper groove in the Anderson-Tendulkar Trophy series against England until the setback.

But the star player is putting in a firm effort to come back even stronger. Nitish Reddy commenced his rehabilitation from home before heading to the BCCI Centre of Excellence for an overall recovery.

Reports have suggested that Reddy has been doing well in terms of progress and is looking to secure a spot in the Asia Cup tournament.

“Nitish began his rehab at home first after returning from England. He then headed to the Centre of Excellence last week and is stationed there for a full-fledged recovery process.

“So far, his rehab has gone well. Things will be clearer by next week. But yes, he’s certainly striving to make the Asia Cup squad and hasn’t given up hope at all. One big advantage of Nitish is that he’s only 22, which should help in recovering faster,” A BCCI official said to The Telegraph.
