From Gavaskar to Nitish: Indian Cricket Legends on the MCG Honours Board Complete List

At the Melbourne Cricket Ground during the Boxing Day Test against Australia Nitish Kumar Reddy has scored his first Test century in first innings, Reddy made sure of it; this amazing game clearly showed his skills and how hard he worked for it, getting his name on the MCG Honours Board.
Washington Sundar and Nitish Kumar Reddy really showed it in the fourth Test with a critical 127-run partnership. Reddy was doing very well by playing the 176 balls with Sundar which included hitting 10 fours and a nice six. Before this excellent hundred, he was also getting decent scores, hitting three 40s in the previous games leading up to this one. All these incredible efforts earned Reddy a well-deserved spot on the prestigious honours board at the Melbourne Cricket Ground, showing everyone how great he is at batting, especially in tough spots like the lower-middle order.
When players from India achieve great success or take five or more wickets in Tests and ODIs at the MCG in a different country, that's when they make us extremely proud, they've got this wonderful success board where these major achievements are recognized.
