Nitish Kumar Reddy has silenced his critics including Sanjay Manjrekar after smashing a cinematic century on Day 3 of the fourth Test against Australia

Team India face the daunting task of going past Australia's first innings total of 474. Captain Rohit Sharma's poor run with the willow is not coming to an end. He came out to open in the boxing day Test at the MCG and got out to his counterpart Pat Cummins after scoring three runs.

Nitish Kumar Reddy has scored his maiden international century, delivering the ultimate clapback to Sanjay Manrekar, who wanted him dropped for the Boxing Day Test. Puma Cricket has further piled on the expert’s embarrassment with a captionless social media post–a picture of Reddy doing the shush gesture.
