Team India youngster Nitish Kumar Reddy is set to make his return to the Sunrisers Hyderabad squad for the upcoming Indian Premier League 2025 season after recovering from a side strain. The all-rounder has passed all fitness assessments and received medical clearance from the board’s physios. Nitish last played for India in January but was sidelined with an injury during the T20I series against England. His impressive performances in IPL 2024 and on India’s tour of Australia have solidified his reputation. Now fully fit, Nitish will join SRH for their IPL 2025 opener against Rajasthan Royals on March 23. His availability strengthens SRH’s batting depth and all-round capabilities. Captain Pat Cummins is also expected to return for the tournament’s opener after missing Australia’s Champions Trophy due to injury. SRH finished as runners-up in the previous season and will look to start their campaign on a strong note against RR. The return of Nitish Kumar Reddy adds depth and skill to the SRH squad as they aim for a successful IPL 2025 season.
