In the immediate future, Tilak Varma will be an India player and will be banging on that door: Ravi Shastri

Tilak Varma has played in every match for Mumbai in the ongoing IPL 2023, scoring 217 runs at an impressive strike rate of 156.12 in six games. Over the years, the Indian Premier League has provided numerous opportunities for uncapped players to earn a place on the Indian national team. They deliver outstanding performances that keep the judges on the brink of their seats.

Ravi Shastri believes that one of the many players who have distinguished themselves at the tournament this year will shortly be wearing India’s colors. Since the previous edition of the tournament, Tilak Varma of the Mumbai Indians has demonstrated remarkable batting ability. Even though Mumbai concluded last season with a wooden spoon, the 20-year-old did not disappoint. Former India head coach Ravi Shastri is convinced that he will soon be called up to the Indian national team because he has continued his impressive play from the previous season.

Tilak Varma entered the 2018 IPL season on the heels of a successful domestic season, and he has maintained the momentum. According to Shastri, the MI batter has significantly improved since the previous tournament, and it’s only a matter of time before Tilak begins knocking on the Indian team’s door.

“The outstanding performer is Tilak Varma.” In the second or third game of the commentary, I stated that he will play for India in the immediate future.

He will smash this door down. Not only does he have the ability to conclude strong, but he also has the clarity of thought. Shastri told ESPNCricinfo, “When he comes out to bat, what impresses me the most are his first 10 balls; he is not afraid to take risks and play to his strengths.”

Last year he looked very fine, but this year he looks even better. Shastri

Last week, following Mumbai Indians’ victory over Sunrisers Hyderabad, Rohit Sharma lavished praise on Tilak Varma, stating that the youth has a long way to go and will soon be seen playing for another team. Rohit’s statement led everyone to believe that Varma’s India debut is imminent, and Shastri holds the same opinion.

“During the presentation of this particular game, Rohit uttered a very clever remark. He stated that Tilak does not play the bowler but rather the projectile. He is not concerned about his reputation in the sense that he is not intimidated by it. He plays whatever is available, regardless of the name, which is visible to all. He has a wide variety of shots, a decent temperament, and he appeared very good last year, but he appears even better this year. You keep an eye out for athletes who are improving,” Shastri added.
