T20 WC: 'I’ve Done It Role For MI, Whatever Team Needs, I Am Up For It', Says Tilak On Change In Batting Position
T20 World Cup: India batter Tilak Varma said he wanted the team's batters to instil fear in Zimbabwe’s bowlers by attacking on every delivery, which led to them getting a huge 72-run win to keep their semifinal hopes alive in the 2026 Men’s T20 World Cup.
At the MA Chidambaram Stadium, Indian batters had a field day as everyone had a strike-rate above 150 and posted 254/6, which was enough to get a campaign-resurrecting victory, as Zimbabwe finished at 184/6.
"We were just looking for this. When the openers give a good start, the same confidence (went) to numbers 3, 4 and 5. (Sanju) Samson started brilliantly, and everyone followed (in the same direction). We wanted to continue hitting even if we had lost three or four wickets in the powerplay. We wanted to put fear in the opposition bowlers that these guys were ready to hit each and every ball,” said Tilak at the conclusion of the game.
