The first part of Team India's Australia tour has ended. The three-match series was completed with the last ODI played in Sydney, in which Team India had to face defeat by 1-2. But the cricket action is not going to stop because soon the series of 5 T20 matches between India and Australia is starting. However, before this series, there is concern about the fitness of the young player of the Indian team, Nitish Kumar Reddy. Everyone is waiting to see whether he will be able to play in this series or not.

This T20 series between India and Australia will start from October 29 and Nitish is also a part of the Indian squad for this series. But before that there is concern about his fitness. Actually, Nitish was also a part of Team India in the ODI series and he was also included in the playing 11 in the first two matches. But he could not play in the third match. The Board of Control for Cricket in India (BCCI) had said in a statement that Nitish had a thigh injury, due to which he was given rest.

After this, no new update has come from BCCI or Team India regarding Nitish's fitness. But now latest information has come about Nitish in a report of Cricbuzz. It has been told in the report that Nitish is not completely fit yet but he is expected to recover by the T20 series. If he is fit, it will be a big relief for Team India because star all-rounder Hardik Pandya is also not a part of this series due to injury. In such a situation, Nitish's presence is important for the team.

As far as Shreyas Iyer is concerned, the middle order batsman is currently kept in the hospital in Sydney. Iyer was injured while fielding in the Sydney ODI match. Iyer's ribs were injured while taking an excellent catch, after which he was immediately taken to the hospital. Initial reports have found that he has suffered a blow to his ribs on his left side, due to which he may stay away from cricket action for about 3 weeks.
