Overview

  • Player agency Square The One has filed a petition in the Delhi High Court under Section 11(6) alleging that Nitish Kumar Reddy breached their management contract by failing to pay ₹5 crore in agreed fees.
  • The petition seeks the appointment of an independent arbitrator to resolve the dispute over unpaid dues.
  • Square The One says it managed Reddy from 2021 until he severed ties during the 2024–25 Border-Gavaskar Trophy and hired a new agent.
  • Nitish Kumar Reddy remains sidelined by a left knee injury sustained on the England tour, ruling him out of the final two Tests.
  • Invoking formal arbitration is rare in cricket management cases, underlining the agency’s insistence on a court-supervised resolution of its ₹5 crore claim.
