Suryakumar Yadav showered praise on Tilak Varma and said that the youngster was capable of doing what he did in Centurion.
India captain Suryakumar Yadav stated that the Men in Blue had played the style of cricket they had intended to play after the team defeated South Africa in the third Twenty20 International. In Centurion, India defeated South Africa by 11 runs. The Men in Blue seized a 2-1 lead in the four-match T20I series after an exciting victory in Centurion. With just one run off of four balls in the first inning, the captain of India did not do well in the match. Andile Simelane pulled him from the crease, ending his stay there.
The captain of India also praised Tilak Varma, saying the young player could achieve what he did in Centurion.
“Very joyful. We played the style of cricket we wanted to play, as we discussed in the team meetings. (How the young players live up to the theme of fearlessness) That’s what we’ve been urging them to do, just like they’ve been doing for their teams and states in the nets. They support their game and their aim, even if they lose a few innings. Regarding Tilak Varma, what can I say? He approached me in Gqeberha and requested if he might bat at three o’clock.
I told him to have fun because it was his day. He will undoubtedly bat at three from now on (laughs). He gave it to him when he begged for it. “Very happy for his family,” ESPNcricinfo cited Suryakumar as saying.
South Africa chose to field after winning the toss, according to the match recap.
India reached 219/6 in the first inning because to the incredible knocks of Abhishek Sharma (50 runs from 25 balls, 3 fours, and 5 sixes) and Tilak Varma (107* runs from 56 balls, 8 fours, and 7 sixes). The batsmanship of the other Men in Blue batters was lacking.
Marco Jansen (54 runs from 17 balls, 4 fours, and 5 sixes) and Heinrich Klaasen (41 runs from 22 balls, 1 four, and 4 sixes) performed a blitzkrieg knock during the run chase, keeping the Proteas in the match. But in the end, India was the one who grinned thanks to Arshdeep.
With three vital wickets and 37 runs in his four-over performance, Arshdeep Singh performed admirably both with the new ball and in the last overs. In his four overs, Varun Chakaravarthy claimed two wickets.
