During the IPL 2025 encounter against the Lucknow Super Giants, Tilak Varma of the Mumbai Indians was questioned on his contentious retired out dismissal. The left-handed batter asserted that he knew why the team made the choice. The Southpaw went on to affirm that he accepted the judgement in a constructive manner rather than a negative one and that he believed it was critical to respond appropriately to the circumstances of the match.
Despite being disappointed by the decision, the middle-order batter viewed it favourably. The outstanding batsman was retired out against LSG after reaching 25(24) with 24 runs needed in the final 7 deliveries. The Indian has since recovered brilliantly, scoring 56 (29), and in the previous two games, 59 (33), against RCB and DC. When Tilak Varma expressed his annoyance at the bowlers’ batting performances, he meant what he said.
“That’s more crucial,” Tilak Varma stated.
“Nothin’. All I could think was that they made the choice for the benefit of the team. As a result, I interpreted it positively rather than negatively. How you interpret it, however, is crucial. “I told the coach and staff that I was comfortable batting in any position they wanted me to,” the great player remarked on Sunday on great Sports.
“So that’s how I was thinking. All I want is to feel at ease wherever I bat. “Don’t worry, wherever you play me, I’m comfortable, and I’ll do my best,” Tilak Varma continued. “I told the coach and staff that.
We were caught off guard by Karun Nair, said MI captain Hardik Pandya.
Hardik Pandya gave a speech at the post-match presentation following the exciting game against the Delhi Capitals. After defeating DC in a crucial match, the MI captain felt fantastic. Karn Sharma bowled brilliantly and took significant wickets during his session, and the star player was pleased for him. Given the Delhi setting, Pandya thought his spell was excellent.
“Of course. Winning is always unique. particularly in games such as these. It means so much that you must continue to fight. Karn was amazing. “It showed a lot of heart to come in and bowl the way he bowled, especially at a small ground like that,” Pandya added, pleased with Karn’s bowling effort and MI’s victory.
Karun Nair’s outstanding effort against them was commended by Pandya. He asserted that because of Nair’s performance in his IPL comeback game, his options were running low. Hardik asserted that fielding might change the outcome of the match when questioned about the three run-outs in a single over. The MI captain claimed that the fielders’ efforts enabled the five-time champions to turn opportunities into dismissals.
The things we could bowl at him were becoming limited. He has put in a lot of work, as evidenced by the manner he faced our bowlers, took risks, and performed. I believe he caught us off guard. Fielding, in my opinion, has the power to completely alter a game. They had the opportunity and converted because we were switched on and didn’t give up,” Pandya continued.
