"I calculated my age to ensure I could play with Kohli": Nitish Reddy on his childhood dream
Nitish Reddy recently shared his journey from a young cricket enthusiast dreaming of playing alongside Virat Kohli to making his Test debut for India. The all-rounder reminisced about his childhood, when he would calculate his age to ensure he had enough time to play with Kohli before his retirement. Reddy's dream turned into reality when he received his maiden Test cap from Kohli ahead of the Perth Test, which India won by 295 runs, taking a 1-0 lead in the series. The 21-year-old, who grew up idolizing Kohli, expressed his admiration and excitement about playing with his hero. "This was a safety photo, at the time he (Virat Kohli) was so famous. I felt that if I don't get a photo chance, let's take a picture now. It's reminding me of my childhood dreams. From childhood, I was a huge fan of Virat bhaiya. I used to watch every match of his, so that he scores a hundred and celebrates it. I liked his celebration a lot - at that time, I used to calculate my age so as to see if he doesn't retire when I make my debut for India," Reddy shared his thoughts in a video posted by BCCI.
