IPL 2025: Jayawardene Defends Bold Call To Retire Out Tilak In Mumbai's Defeat Vs Lucknow
The decision came after Tilak struggled to find boundaries despite spending considerable time at the crease. Walking in at No. 5 during a critical juncture of the match when MI were 86 for 3 in the ninth over, Tilak initially showed promise by stitching a steady partnership with Suryakumar Yadav. But as the chase intensified, the southpaw couldn’t find the acceleration, especially after Suryakumar’s dismissal in the 17th over, which tilted the match decisively in LSG’s favour.
“I think Tilak batted well for us when we lost that wicket, and that partnership with Surya was crucial. He just couldn’t get going towards the end,” Jayawardene said in the post-match press conference. “I waited till the last few overs, hoping that since he had spent some time there, he would get that big hit away. But he was struggling, and I felt we needed someone fresh out there.”
