In the little chance that he has had thus far, young Tilak Varma has excelled. The 21-year-old was selected by the Mumbai Indians for the Indian Premier League after showcasing his abilities on the domestic circuit. In just 25 games, he has already amassed 740 runs. Tilak entered the national team’s playing lineup and is currently included in the T20I squad thanks to his consistency and game-winning batting displays.
Former cricketer Abhishek Nayar discussed Tilak’s development as a three-dimensional player and complimented his leadership abilities. He said that Rohit Sharma, the captain of India, recognized that as well and frequently complimented him on it. In addition, Nayar called him a brave cricket player and said he might be useful to Indian cricket in the future.
“Tilak offers the team two facets of his skill set. Indeed, fielding and bowling are crucial, but Nayar’s leadership and batting abilities are what truly matter when it comes to the two dimensions, according to a quotation from Jio Cinema.
“Tilak Varma is continuously displaying courage. because he makes wise recommendations for Rohit when he plays for MI. Indian cricket will greatly benefit from that aspect of Tilak, he continued.
Although he is still a young player, from what I’ve heard, Rohit Sharma used to remark that he had a fantastic cricket brain.
Tilak will be crucial to the forthcoming five-match Twenty20 International series against Australia, as many prominent cricket players will be missing. Like Virat Kohli, he is probably going to bat at number three and serve as an anchor. Notably, in his ten T20I appearances to date, he has amassed 231 runs at a strike average of 142.59. His performance against the West Indies in his maiden series was amazing, but against Ireland, he faltered and struggled mightily at the bat during the Asian Games.
