Nitish Kumar Reddy shone with the willow as well as the ball. He played a fiery knock of 74 runs off just 34 deliveries including 4 fours and 7 sixes. Later, he also snapped two wickets following which he was honoured with the "Player of the Match" award.
Team India won the match by 86 runs and clinched the series by 2-0 with one match left. The third T20I between India and Bangladesh will be played on Saturday.

"The thought process is very important, which is missing in Pakistani cricket. India rested Shubman Gill and Yashasvi Jaiswal but nobody rests in our team. So, please learn something from India," Basit Ali said on his YouTube channel.
"The kind of sixes that Nitish hit should be called 'Athhe' and not sixes. And then Rinku Singh is Michael Bevan after all. Gautam Gambhir's thinking has been a success. I am not saying that he will win the World Cup straight away. Even if he flops, Gautam won't stop backing him because they pick players and make them and this is the best example of that," the former cricketer added.

A few weeks back, Babar Azam stepped down the T20I captaincy. Additionally, there have been speculations that ahead of the Champions Trophy 2025, the International Cricket Council (ICC) is looking for other venues. Till now Pakistan holds the hosting rights and there is no confirmation from the ICC.
