IPL 2023: Rohit Sharma has heaped enormous admiration on MI’s youthful guns in the middle order, Tilak Varma and Nehal Wadhera, as they square up against Lucknow Super Giants in the Eliminator match of the IPL 2023. Rohit Sharma looked back at how the youngsters did for India.
Even further, Rohit predicted that Tilak and Nehal’s future success will be comparable to that of Jasprit Bumrah, Hardik Pandya, and Krunal Pandya, all of whom began their careers with the Mumbai Indians before establishing illustrious careers in Indian cricket. Tilak and Nehal, who both made their IPL debuts for Mumbai, have been phenomenal for the team thus far in the competition.
Rohit continued by saying that despite experiencing a dry spell in the previous few seasons, the present MI setup will once again become famous two years later.
“Tilak Varma and Nehal Wadhera’s narrative will resemble that of Jasprit Bumrah, Hardik Pandya, and Krunal Pandya, among others. These two men would play a significant role for Mumbai and India in the future, according to the public after two years,” said Rohit.
Notably, Tilak made his IPL debut for MI in 2022, and at the end of the season, he had scored 397 runs in 14 games with a strike rate of 131.02 and an average of 36.09, which are outstanding numbers. Tilak has been in and out of the team throughout the current season due to recurring ailments, appearing in just nine league games. Tilak tallied 274 runs in those games, averaging 45.66 and striking out at an astounding 158.38 per cent.
Nehal, on the other hand, played in his first IPL encounter this season and has since scored 214 runs in 12 games at an average of 30.57 and a strike rate of 141.72. In the high-stakes match between MI and CSK, he not only achieved two half-centuries but also recorded his highest score of 64.
