Tilak Varma has become one of the rising stars of the Indian team as he emerged onto the scene following some great performances for his Indian Premier League franchise, Mumbai Indians. After scoring more than 300 runs in both of the seasons of the IPL, he got his maiden India cap when he debuted against West Indies last month.
Tilak Varma was then drafted into the Indian team following two fifties in his debut series. His stroke-making ability and the skill to handle pressure is what Indian team management saw. He can be one of the strongest contenders for the spot if Shreyas Iyer is ruled out.
