India Star Nitish Reddy In Legal Trouble Over Unpaid Dues Of Rs 5 Crore

NDTV27-07-2025
India all-rounder Nitish Kumar Reddy got embroiled in a legal trouble. The all-rounder, who was a part of India's squad for the five-match Test series against England, got injured after the third match and has been ruled out of the remaining two Tests. After returning to India, Reddy landed in a pit of controversy as his former agent filed a petition against him, asking him to clear his dues of Rs 5 crore. Reddy was managed by the player agency, Square The One, and they have dragged the matter to the court.
According to some sources of India Today, Reddy opted for a new manager during the Border-Gavaskar Trophy 2024-25 against Australia, ending his four-year relationship with Square The One. However, the agency has now accused him for not clearing the dues.
A petition under Section 11(6) of the Arbitration and Conciliation Act has been filed by Square The One Private Limited, accusing the Sunrisers Hyderabad all-rounder of breaching the management agreement and non-payment of dues.
The Delhi High Court is likely to hear the case on Monday, July 28.
The report further stated that the agency managed Reddy since 2021 and even arranged many commercials and brand endorsements for him during their four-year association.
"Ninety percent of such disputes do not reach court and are resolved privately. But in this case, Nitish refused to pay any money and claimed he had secured the deals himself," a source told India Today on the condition of anonymity.
Talking about Reddy, the all-rounder suffered a knee injury after the third Test against England and was ruled out of the remaining two matches. India, already trailing 1-2 in the five-match series, suffered several injury blows ahead of the fourth Test as Arshdeep Singh and Akash Deep were also ruled out of the match.

IND Vs ENG 5th Test: England 339/6 At Stumps On Day 4, Trail India By 35 Runs

Last Updated: Bad light and rain stopped play on day four of the fifth Test at the Oval. England were 339/6, needing 35 runs to win; India needed three wickets to square the series. Bad light and rain forced stumps on the fourth day in the fifth Test between India and England at the Oval on Sunday. That means the five-match series for the Anderson-Tendulkar Trophy will end on Monday (August 4) – the 25th day. England were 339/6 at stumps, needing 35 runs to win the final Test and the five-match series. India, on the other hand, required just three wickets to win the Test and square the series 2-2, as Chris Woakes had already been ruled out of the match due to injury. However, Woakes was seen dressed up with his hand in a sling. What Happened On Day 4 At The Oval? Jamie Smith and Jamie Overton were batting at 2 and 0 respectively when the umpires checked the light meter and decided to halt proceedings. England reached 317-4 at tea on the fourth day as Harry Brook, who had some moments of luck, was dismissed for 111 shortly before the interval. His fourth-wicket partnership of 195 runs in 35 overs with Yorkshire teammate Joe Root shifted the momentum after England had been reduced to 106-3 following the loss of stand-in captain Ollie Pope. Root, the world's top-ranked Test batsman, was unbeaten on 98 at tea. No team has ever chased more than England's 263 runs in the fourth innings of a Test at the Oval, a record set in their one-wicket victory over Australia in 1902. However, aggressive batting has been a hallmark of England's approach to Test cricket since captain Ben Stokes, who missed this match due to a shoulder injury, and coach Brendon McCullum took charge in 2022. England are now poised to end this series as they began it, having successfully chased 371 runs for a five-wicket win in the first Test at Headingley in June — the 10th highest successful fourth-innings run chase in Test history. Brook made an immediate impact upon his arrival at the crease on Sunday, hitting 27 runs in the space of eight balls at one point. The talented 26-year-old charged down the pitch to hit Akash Deep for an extraordinary six over cover despite heavy cloud cover in London favouring India's quicks. He narrowly avoided being dismissed when he almost holed out to fine leg off Prasidh Krishna, but Mohammed Siraj inadvertently stepped onto the boundary rope, resulting in a six for Brook. India captain Shubman Gill delayed introducing spin until the 43rd over, with England at 190-2, when he brought on Washington Sundar. However, neither Sundar nor left-arm spinner Ravindra Jadeja had much impact against the well-set batsmen, who reached their century partnership in just 108 balls. India's fielding grew increasingly ragged, with Brook reaching 98 when Deep misfielded a drive off Sundar at the boundary, conceding a four. Brook completed his century with a two to third man off the next ball, reaching 100 in 91 balls, including 12 fours and two sixes — his second century of the series. Brook's innings ended spectacularly when, attempting another big hit off Deep, his bat flew out of his hands as the ball looped to mid-off where Siraj caught it. Root, however, continued to score steadily, hitting a straight-driven four off Siraj to move closer to his 39th Test hundred. England had resumed on Sunday at 50-1 after Siraj bowled Zak Crawley with the last ball of Saturday's play. Ben Duckett, who was 34 not out overnight, fell for 54 after edging an intended drive off Krishna to KL Rahul at second slip, while Pope was dismissed lbw for 27 by Siraj. Brief Scores: India: 224 and 396 vs England: 247 and 339/6 in 76.2 overs (Ben Duckett 54, Joe Root 105, Harry Brook 111; Mohammed Siraj 2/95, Prasidh Krishna 3/109).

'Injection liya hai tu?': Shubman Gill under pressure as Akash Deep struggles with another injury, video goes viral

Akash Deep hit on the shin. (PIC - X) New Delhi: Team India's Test skipper Shubman Gill was heard asking Indian bowler Akash Deep if he had taken an injection to get relief from his pain as the star bowler suffered another injury during England's chase in the fifth Test of the Anderson-Tendulkar Trophy played at the Oval. What happened to Akash Deep? In the second-to-last over before lunch on Day 4 of the fifth Test in the Anderson-Tendulkar Trophy, Brook hit a straight drive that went straight back to Akash Deep, hitting him on the shin. What did Shubman Gill ask? The stump mic picked up Gill shouting, 'Injection liya kya tum?' – asking if Akash had taken a painkiller shot and was ready to bowl. He repeated the question, signalling urgency. WATCH VIDEO BELOW: — The Game Changer (@TheGame_26) August 3, 2025 What happened in the match? Talking about the match, when the final innings resumed on 50 for one wicket under overcast conditions in London, England's star batter Ben Duckett smashed a stunning fifty before getting dismissed by Prasidh Krishna. Then his other bowling partner Mohammed Siraj struck shortly after to dismiss captain Ollie Pope, but England star batter Joe Root and Harry Brook carried Englaldn to 164-3 at lunch. After the lunch break, Shubman Gill was continuing with his pacer bowlers, both Prasidh Krishna and Mohammed Siraj were bowling together. Later, the Indian captain brought up Washington Sundar for a short spin spell, looking for a wicket or an impact, but it was not that impactful. During the second session, both of them reached their respective fifties while England was at 250 runs, so they had 125 runs left to achieve the humongous victory target of 374, which would give them a 3-1 series win. England are now chasing history at The Oval. Fewer runs have been scored to win in a fourth innings of a Test at the ground than England's 263 in a one-wicket victory over Australia in 1902.
