Early life and background

Kaki Nitish Kumar Reddy was born on 26 May 2003 in Gajuwaka, Visakhapatnam, Andhra Pradesh. Raised in the same neighbourhood, he began playing cricket as a young child and practiced regularly at local grounds. His family supported his ambitions from an early age; his father, K. Mutyala Reddy, made personal sacrifices to ensure Nitish received sustained training and opportunities. His mother is Manasa Jyostna and he has a sister named Sharmila Reddy.

Career

Nitish developed as a batting all-rounder who bats right-handed and bowls right-arm medium-fast. He first appeared in representative cricket for Andhra at Under-14 level, playing in the 2015–2016 South Zone Inter State Under-14 Tournament where he finished the competition with notable innings, including a top score of 76 in an opening match.

Progressing through the age groups, Nitish had a breakthrough at Under-16 level during the 2017–2018 Vijay Merchant Trophy. Across seven matches in that campaign he compiled an extraordinary tally of runs and wickets, finishing as the tournament’s leading run-scorer with multiple centuries and contributing heavily with the ball, including two five-wicket hauls and 26 wickets overall.

His performances at state level led to selection for India’s Under-19 sides. In 2018 he was named to India Under-19 B for a Quadrangular tournament and later featured for India Under-19 Green in the Under-19 Challenger Trophy, where he contributed both runs and wickets and helped his side lift the trophy. He also played for India Under-19 A during the 2019–2020 Under-19 Challenger Trophy, finishing that competition among the higher wicket-takers.

At domestic senior level, Nitish was added to the Andhra Ranji Trophy squad and made his first-class debut in January 2020 against Kerala, scoring runs and claiming his first Ranji wicket in that match. He made his List A debut for Andhra in the Vijay Hazare Trophy on 20 February 2021, scoring a half-century. He has been a regular feature across Andhra’s formats, appearing in Syed Mushtaq Ali Trophy T20s and multiple seasons of the Vijay Hazare Trophy and Ranji Trophy.

In T20 domestic cricket, he made his Syed Mushtaq Ali Trophy debut in November 2021, producing useful batting and bowling displays during the tournament. Across the 2022–2023 Vijay Hazare Trophy he contributed both with bat and ball, recording a half-century and a three-wicket haul in group matches and finishing the season with runs and wickets to his name. In the 2022–2023 Ranji Trophy he recorded a four-wicket haul, including several maiden overs, against Tamil Nadu.

Nitish has also been involved with Indian Premier League franchises in supporting roles. He was named as a net bowler for Chennai Super Kings in September 2021 and later trained with the team in Dubai. Ahead of the 2023 IPL season he was acquired by Sunrisers Hyderabad at his base price and has been listed with jersey number 8 while associated with the franchise.

Physically, Nitish is listed at approximately 175 cm (5'10") and around 60 kg, with black hair and black eyes. He has a tattoo on his left forearm which he has said reflects personal emotions and interests. His favourite cricketers include Mahendra Singh Dhoni and Virat Kohli. Off the field he owns motorcycles such as a BMW G 310 GS and a KTM Duke.
