He mainly focused on how Reddy consistently performed at his best in the challenging conditions in Australia.
“He has got, I’ve played the A game against him, the PM’s game and then a couple of Tests and you see he can score all around the ground. He’s obviously a very nice player and does well in the IPL and he’s doing well here in Australian conditions as well. It looks like he’s got pretty much every shot in the book,” Boland told reporters.
