According to Media Sources, India suffered a massive blow before the three T20Is against Bangladesh after Shivam Dube was ruled out of the series owing to a back injury. The Board of Control for Cricket in India (BCCI) released a statement to rule Dube out of the series and named young Tilak Varma as his replacement. The southpaw will link with the Indian team in Gwalior on Sunday morning ahead of the opening T20I. “All-rounder Shivam Dube is ruled out of the three-match T20I series owing to a back injury. The Senior Selection Committee has named Tilak Varma as Shivam’s replacement. Tilak will link up with the squad in Gwalior on Sunday morning,” BCCI said in a statement.
As Per Media Sources, Tilak had a blistering outing for the Mumbai Indians in the Indian Premier League (IPL) 2024. He showed his knack for garnering runs effortlessly by taking the fight against the opposition bowlers. In 13 matches, he racked up 416 runs at an average of 41.60 at a strike rate of 149.64. His explosiveness in the cash-rich league was further glistened by 35 fours and 19 towering maximums. The 21-year-old has represented India in 16 T20Is, garnered 336 runs, striking at 139.41 and averaging 33.60 with two fifties to his name.

He lit up the T20 World Cup final in Barbados with his quick-fire 27(16) at a whopping strike rate of 168.75, laced with three fours and a sole towering maximum. His dynamism towards the end propelled India’s score to a competitive total of 176/7. His explosiveness towards the end was one of the factors that contributed to India’s T20 World Cup win over South Africa.
