"My connection with SRH is..."- Nitish Kumar Reddy rubbishes reports of his transfer to some other team in IPL 2026

Nitish Kumar Reddy has been part of SRH since IPL 2023.

Indian Cricket Team all-rounder Nitish Kumar Reddy has lashed out at rumours of him leaving Sunrisers Hyderabad (SRH) to play for some other team in Indian Premier League (IPL) 2026. He said that he always stands by his team and will continue playing for them. 

For the last few days, Nitish Reddy has been in the news. First, he suffered a knee injury and was then ruled out of the ongoing test series against England. Following that, he was sued by his old agency and became part of another controversy. 

If this was not enough, some sections of the reports suggested that Nitish Reddy is looking to change his team in the IPL. This was because, the all-rounder was unhappy with his role in the team, especially his batting position being below his preferred spot of number four. 

I’ll always stand by this team – Nitish Kumar Reddy

However, amid all the reports, Nitish Kumar Reddy came up with a thumping reply. He talked about his connection with SRH and took to his X (formerly Twitter) account, he said: 

“I tend to stay away from the noise, but some things deserve clarity. My connection with SRH is built on trust, respect, and years of shared passion. I’ll always stand by this team.” 

Nitish Reddy didn’t have a great outing in IPL 2025. He struggled with the bat and ball, scoring just 182 runs in 13 innings. He made his IPL debut with the franchise in 2023, and then his best came in the IPL 2024, where he scored 303 runs and picked three wickets. 

His impressive performances saw him get his India test cap during the Border-Gavaskar Trophy 2024-25. He slammed a magnificent ton in the Melbourne Cricket Ground (MCG) and since then has been a regular member of the team in the format.
