in co ord compounds hybridisations of three types exist (mostly) sp3 dsp2 and sp3d2

ni z= 28 3d8 4s2

oxidation state 0 CO is neutral ligand and strong field ligand therefore e- pairing occurs and final e- config after  pairing is 

3d10 4s0 hence 4s and 4p orbitals will be used for bonding and no of ligand is 4 so

hybridisation sp3
