Narendra Modi Stadium: Tilak Varma highligted the importance of anchoring an innings after his maiden IPL century powered Mumbai Indians to a commanding 99-run victory over Gujarat Titans at the Narendra Modi Stadium in Ahmedabad.

Coming into the contest on the back of four consecutive defeats, MI needed a statement performance, and Tilak delivered in emphatic fashion with an unbeaten 101 off just 45 balls. His knock rescued the visitors from early trouble and propelled them to a formidable 199/5, which proved far beyond GT’s reach.

Reflecting on his innings and the significance of the result, Tilak emphasised both personal and team objectives.
