India Star Nitish Reddy In Legal Trouble Over Unpaid Dues Of Rs 5 Crore
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.

Kirby Smart opens preseason camp for 10th season at Georgia with young team after 2024 SEC title
ATHENS, Ga. (AP) — Kirby Smart opened his 10th season as Georgia coach with Thursday's first preseason practice knowing he didn't have to worry about his message growing old with his players. HT Image More than half of Georgia's players are starting their first or second years. Smart knows his lessons won't quickly sound stale for the defending Southeastern Conference champion Bulldogs. With only seven returning starters, Georgia opened practice with a long list of young players eager to seize their first starting jobs. 'We are young ... but we are hungry,' Smart said Thursday. 'We've got a team that's fun to coach. ... A lot of them haven't had an opportunity to play, and now this is their opportunity. Sometimes when you're coaching, it's a lot more exciting for guys when they're having their first time. Now that being said, the lack of experience sometimes can show, but we're going to try to get through that in camp.' A more experienced Georgia team finished 11-3 last season and No. 6 in The AP Top 25 final poll. It was the team's eighth consecutive top 10 finish under Smart, including back-to-back national championships in 2021 and 2022. Last season's SEC championship was Georgia's third with Smart. Georgia returns only four starters on offense. That total includes two tight ends — Oscar Delp and Lawson Luckie, who made seven starts. Right tackle Earnest Greene III is the only returning starter on the offensive line. Wide receiver Dillon Bell is the fourth returning starter on offense. Quarterback Gunner Stockton took over for injured Carson Beck in the second half of Georgia's 22-19 overtime win over Texas in the Southeastern Conference championship game in Atlanta. Stockton started in the Bulldogs' 23-10 Sugar Bowl loss to Notre Dame in the CFP semifinals. Smart says Stockton is still competing with Ryan Puglisi, but it would be a major surprise if the junior doesn't start in Georgia's season opener against Marshall on Aug. 30. Following Beck's transfer to Miami, Stockton strengthened his hold on the job with a strong spring practice and directed the first-team offense in the G-Day spring game. The defense includes only three starters: lineman Christen Miller, inside linebacker C.J. Allen and cornerback Daylen Everette. Smart, 49, was asked if he still lives up to the team's 2025 motto: 'fire, passion, energy.' 'I feel it every day, because if you don't have it, it's hard to be successful,' Smart said. 'You can't keep up. Our staff has it. Our staff has great juice. We've had a chance to reenergize.' Delp was a freshman on Georgia's 2022 national championship team. He said he's motivated to help the Bulldogs win another title and has tried to share lessons from that team with new players. 'I came back for a reason,' Delp said when asked why he didn't enter the NFL draft. "I want to have a great season. 'I know how it was when when we won games and we won national championships. I was here for that and so I just kind of share with them the standard and what those older guys were holding me to when I was younger. I just try to keep it the same, you know, the standard is the standard. You've got to do it certain ways to win championships.' Offensive guard Micah Morris (6-4, 330) entered camp as a projected starter. The fifth-year senior was a fill-in starter last season. This is his long-awaited opportunity to be a full-time starter. Morris, who has a nickname of 'Big Mike' and a reputation as the strongest player on the team, said he never considered finding an opportunity to start at another school through a transfer. 'This is my home, this is where I committed,' Morris said. 'This is where I wanted to be when I was a 17-year-old kid. ... I knew I could develop here even if I wasn't starting.' Smart said backup offensive lineman Jahzare Jackson, a sophomore, 'is disappointed, obviously, in the decision-making process' following his arrest in Athens on July 16 on possession of more than an ounce of marijuana, a felony. 'He's being disciplined internally, but he's with the team,' Smart said. ___ AP college football: and

‘3 Test series defeats in a row would be a problem for him': Gambhir warned as India face another series loss
India face a must-win clash in the final Test against England at The Oval, trailing 2-1 in the Anderson-Tendulkar Trophy. After back-to-back series losses, pressure has mounted on head coach Gautam Gambhir as questions grow over India's decline in Test cricket. read more Gautam Gambhir has lost 7 out of 11 Test matches he has coached so far. Image: PTI India have shown plenty of fight in the ongoing Anderson-Tendulkar Trophy, but the results haven't reflected their efforts. Under Shubman Gill's captaincy, the team found itself in strong positions in nearly every match, only to let the advantage slip away. They are now 2-1 down in the series and are looking to win the fifth Test to save face. If India lose the final Test at The Oval, it will mark their third straight Test series defeat, something that is likely to raise questions about Gautam Gambhir's role as head coach. Gambhir took over as India's head coach after Rahul Dravid stepped down following the T20 World Cup win in June last year. STORY CONTINUES BELOW THIS AD Earlier this year, India suffered a 3-1 loss in Australia during the Border-Gavaskar Trophy, which knocked them out of the World Test Championship (WTC) final race. Before that, they were stunned at home by New Zealand, who beat them 3-0 in a clean sweep. Both results shocked fans, especially the one at home, as India are known to dominate on their own turf and never lost a Test series to the Kiwis. Gautam Gambhir warned about future if India lose series Now, with England leading the current series, pressure is mounting again. Former England captain Mike Atherton has weighed in on the situation and said Gambhir could be in serious trouble if India lose at The Oval. 'Well, they've lost two series in a row. They lost at home to New Zealand 3-0, and they lost the Border-Gavaskar Trophy 3-1. If they lose this series, then yeah, he's under pressure as a coach,' Atherton said on Sky Sports. 'India, with all their resources, their population strength, they're not a team that people are patient with. They're expected to win every time they walk onto the park. So three Test series defeats in a row would be a problem for him,' he added. Meanwhile, Gambhir was involved in a heated exchange with The Oval's chief curator Lee Fortis ahead of the fifth Test. The incident caught everyone's attention as it is very rare that a coach gets into a fight with ground staff. The Indian team management blamed Fortis, saying that he misbehaved with members of coaching staff. STORY CONTINUES BELOW THIS AD
