India Star In Legal Trouble After Return From England, Sued For Rs 5 Crore

NDTV4 days ago
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.
Anshul Kamboj was roped in as a replacement of Arshdeep Singh in the fourth Test in Manchester as India also included Sai Sudharshan in the Playing XI, replacing Karun Nair.

India announce men's U19 squad for series against Australia

India have retained several key players, including skipper Ayush Mhatre, vice-captain Vihaan Malhotra and charismatic opener Vaibhav Sooryavanshi — fresh from a successful tour of England — for the upcoming away Under-19 series against Australia later this year. India will play three one-dayers and two four-day games against the Australian U-19 side, beginning with the first limited-overs match on September 21. The tour will end on October 10. 'The Junior Selection Committee has picked India U19's squad for the upcoming tour of Australia in September. The India U19 side will play three one-day games and two multi-day matches against Australia's U19 side,' said BCCI secretary Devajot Saikia in a statement on Wednesday. The India U-19 side recently returned from the tour of England, beating the hosts 3-2 in the Youth ODIs, while the two Youth Tests ended in draws. India's top order played a pivotal role in the visitors clinching the one-day series, with centuries from Suryavanshi and Vihaan helping them win the decisive fourth match in Worcester by posting a mammoth 363 after batting first. The junior selection committee has also named five standby players. Schedule: (one-day series) September 21, 24 and 26. Four-day games: September 30-October 3 and October 7-10. India U19 squad: Ayush Mhatre (c), Vihaan Malhotra (vc), Vaibhav Sooryavanshi, Vedant Trivedi, Rahul Kumar, Abhigyan Kundu (wk), Harvansh Singh (wk), R S Ambrish, Kanishk Chouhan, Naman Pushpak, Henil Patel, D Deepesh, Kishan Kumar, Anmoljeet Singh, Khilan Patel, Udhav Mohan, Aman Chauhan. Standby players: Yudhajit Guha, Laxman, B.K. Kishore, Alankrith Rapole, and Arnav Bugga.

Pending aid to sports assns by Oct, says Sawant

Porvorim: Chief minister Pramod Sawant on Wednesday assured the House that pending grants of various sports associations in Goa — running into crores of rupees — would be cleared by Oct in all cases where utilisation certificates have been submitted by the associations to govt. Fatorda MLA Vijai Sardesai raised the issue in the House, stating that while the govt called football a state sport, Rs 11 crore aid is pending. He said that only Rs 2.5 lakh of the earmarked Rs 72 lakh for football over four years has been paid so far by govt. 'If you don't give grants, you will not get results. For associations of sports like athletics, boxing, badminton, and sepak takraw with a good number of members, no grants have been given by govt. Whereas, grants have been given to associations for yogasana and pencak silat, which have few or no members. For the Goa Badminton Association, Rs 10.8 lakh of grants have been kept pending. Why?' said Sardesai. The MLA also questioned the logic behind providing Khelo India Centres at only Sanquelim and Ponda. 'We will have Khelo India centres in all 12 talukas in a phased manner,' replied Sawant.
