**Hyderabad, India** – The father of Sunrisers Hyderabad (SRH) cricketer Nitish Kumar Reddy has become an unexpected social media sensation after a video surfaced showing him working out in a Royal Challengers Bangalore (RCB) jersey. While his son struggles to replicate his strong Test performance in the ongoing IPL 2025 season, Mutyala Reddy’s display of RCB loyalty has captivated fans.
Nitish Kumar Reddy, retained by SRH for ₹6 crore before the mega auction, has had a disappointing IPL campaign. He has scored only 152 runs in nine innings, a stark contrast to his 303 runs in the previous season. His underwhelming performance coincides with SRH’s precarious position in the tournament; the team is on the brink of elimination, facing a crucial match against Gujarat Titans on May 2nd.
The video of Reddy’s father, showcasing his apparent support for RCB, is in stark contrast to his son’s current team’s struggles and has generated considerable amusement and discussion online. The incident highlights the contrasting fortunes of the player and his family’s team allegiances within the context of a tense IPL season for SRH.
