Nitish Kumar Reddy failed to get himself going in the second ODI between India and Australia in Adelaide on Thursday, October 23. The right-handed batter was stumped out by wicketkeeper Alex Carey off Adam Zampa’s bowling. His untimely dismissal left India reeling at 226/8.

The dismissal came in the 45th over of India’s innings. Nitish danced down the pitch to go for a big hit, but Zampa tossed the ball far from the batter’s reach. Carey collected the ball and whipped off the bails in a flash. Reddy was way out of his crease and had no chance to get back.
