Manjrekar's Candid Take: Nitish Kumar Reddy Should Focus, Not Flaunt

Deccan Chronicle  

During the fifth Test between India and Australia, the atmosphere was tense, and every run was crucial. Young all-rounder Nitish Kumar Reddy, who had just made a name for himself with his maiden Test century in the previous match, walked out to bat. After the match, Manjrekar stated, "Nitish should avoid giving interviews and stay away from the limelight." Manjrekar's critique suggested that Nitish's comments had been premature and that the young cricketer should focus more on his game rather than seeking attention. Nitish's dismissal and the subsequent critique by Manjrekar highlighted the intense scrutiny and pressure faced by young players in international cricket.
