Nitish Kumar Reddy's Untimely Dismissal Leaves India Reeling in Adelaide
23 Oct
Summary
- Nitish Kumar Reddy stumped out by Alex Carey off Adam Zampa's bowling
- India struggling at 226/8 after Reddy's dismissal in the 45th over
- Zampa strikes twice in the same over, dismissing Axar Patel as well
On October 23, 2025, India faced Australia in the second ODI of their three-match series in Adelaide. The match saw a crucial moment in the 45th over of India's innings when Nitish Kumar Reddy, the right-handed batter, failed to get himself going and was stumped out by wicketkeeper Alex Carey off the bowling of Adam Zampa.
Reddy's untimely dismissal left India in a precarious position, struggling at 226/8. The dismissal came as Reddy danced down the pitch to go for a big hit, but Zampa tossed the ball far from the batter's reach, allowing Carey to collect the ball and whip off the bails in a flash. Reddy was well out of his crease and had no chance to get back.
Zampa's spin masterclass continued as he struck twice in the same over, also dismissing Axar Patel, who perished for 44 runs off 41 balls. Mitchell Starc took a smart catch at the boundary ropes to dismiss Patel.
