Delhi: Indian T20 team captain Suryakumar Yadav praised young batsman Tilak Verma and said that Tilak kept the promise he had made. Tilak Verma created history by scoring centuries in two consecutive T20 matches against South Africa. Before the third T20, Tilak had requested Suryakumar to give him a chance to bat at number three and Suryakumar accepted it. After this, Tilak’s performance on the field was praiseworthy. India won both the matches and won the series 3-1.
‘Why are you not coming to Pakistan?’, Suryakumar Yadav gave a befitting reply to fan’s question
Earlier, Virat Kohli was considered to be India’s greatest batsman at number three. However, in recent times many batsmen have been tried at this important position, including Rishabh Pant, Ruturaj Gaikwad, Abhishek Sharma and Sanju Samson. Now, Tilak Verma has strengthened his position at this position and proved why he is being considered a future star since the IPL.
After the match, Suryakumar Yadav said that Tilak will become a big player and there is a lot of potential at this position. BCCI shared the video of Team India’s dressing room, in which Suryakumar praised Tilak. Yadav told that there was a time when Virat batted continuously at number three and performed miraculously for India. In such a situation, giving this place to Tilak was the right decision.
Great performance by Tilak and Sanju
Thanks to centuries from Tilak and Sanju Samson, India scored 283 runs, which is India’s fifth highest score in men’s T20 International cricket. Tilak scored unbeaten 120* runs in 47 balls and Sanju Samson scored unbeaten 109* runs in 56 balls. Together they made the biggest partnership for India on any wicket.
