MELBOURNE:

His innings finally finished on 114 off 189 balls on the morning of Day 4, caught at long on by Mitch Starc off Nathan Lyon to be the last man out. When he came for the press conference, his joy was obvious but more heartening was his intent to improve his allround skills.

As good a batter as he has shown himself to be in the series (293 runs, avg 58.60), Reddy knows that his seam bowling isn't up to Test level yet. But he doesn't intend to let it remain like that.

"My expectations (at the start of the tour) was to be a pure all-rounder, and I know I still need to work a little bit more on my bowling, I'm still not happy with the way I'm bowling, and I hope that I come back strong in bowling. I want to fulfil that allrounder slot in the coming days," said the 21-year-old after Sunday's play.
