Was he blowing a flying kiss to surya?

u/l1consolable Nov 15 '24
Yep

u/lolmnst Nov 15 '24
Damn tilak is me fr . Maybe he did it because surya promoted tilak to number 3 or something
94
u/l1consolable Nov 15 '24
Yes youre right. SURYA is proving that he is a late bloomer but still has enough material to identify players.
88
u/Bazingaa98 Nov 15 '24
It's so good to see that Surya is soooo secure as a player and even so as a captain. For Tilak to ask himself to promote him to Number 3(afaik), also shows how easy Surya is as a captain to approach.

u/Sacred-Sand-3123 Nov 15 '24
Surya said that Tilak came to his room after the 2nd match they lost and requested him for his position #3 to get a chance to prove himself. So surya obliged and told him to go out there and express himself.

u/RiskyWhiskyBusiness Nov 15 '24
It's that MI connection. As an MI fan, I've seen Tilak play numerous composed innings amid collapses

FYI the coach is VVS for this series.

u/FaithlessnessOdd7451 Nov 16 '24
Which is surprising. VVS had the same strike rate in both tests and ODIs and yet he has managed to get insane strike rates out of his players. I don't understand how he does it.

u/AdonisBlackwood Nov 15 '24
I would give more credit to SKY

u/United-Rooster7399 Nov 15 '24
The freedom to play however they want was also seen it in the T20wc we just couldn't see huge scores due to the pitch. I would give credit for the change to the Ro-Vid era

u/Brief-Scratch1818 Nov 15 '24
That's why I said I don't give him credit but he helped this possible

Ek ye log t20 me centuries mar rhe. Aur vaha main team test me.... 🤧

u/AdonisBlackwood Nov 15 '24
283 to tests me nhi bnta ab ( mainly because they're no longer playing test matches as test matches. You need to give respect to the format)

u/Sacred-Sand-3123 Nov 15 '24
Our teat team couldn't even chase 145 in 4th innings of last test match to save us from a historic humiliating home whitewash!

u/tambolisamir Nov 15 '24
He has gift of supper timing, that first six was pure timing but ball travelled like bullet, he is just incredible in that two innings

u/TheWatcherr_ Nov 15 '24
Bs aaj jitna team total Aus k against first innings me bhi ban jaye to acha lagega.

u/SkoolLuvAffair Nov 15 '24
Bhai woh toh senior team h, pura match mein wohi banega

u/TheWatcherr_ Nov 15 '24
Innings me ban jaye bhai. Match ki dono innings k total me agar total itna bhi na bane fir to New Year, New Team hi hogi

u/TheOnereddittor India Nov 15 '24
Unlike?

u/sadsoul0777 Kolkata Knight Riders Nov 15 '24
Thala Lobby

u/TheOnereddittor India Nov 15 '24
Oh yeah. Dube performed in the final tho

u/sadsoul0777 Kolkata Knight Riders Nov 15 '24
Massive Duck in Semis though. Had a Disastrous outing in the wc except the final.

u/TheOnereddittor India Nov 15 '24
Performed when needed tho

u/Dimag_se_paidal Nov 15 '24
so performance was not needed in sf?
2
u/TheOnereddittor India Nov 15 '24
Not really. It was a difficult pitch and top order already did well. We won that match quite comfortably. When we were under pressure and needed a few quick runs that made the difference in the end, he shone. It'll tell that innings was worth gold

u/AdUpset8652 Nov 15 '24
Mumbai really picks really good players be it ishan , hardik , tilak , nihal ,
54
u/padhta_nahi_hu Nov 15 '24
Who knew these guys before they played for MI? Mi made them the behemoth they are today be it Bumrah, Pandya, Sky, Tilak.

u/AdUpset8652 Nov 15 '24
That's what I am saying that Mumbai's talent hunt group really find them players that are capable of becoming big

u/FutureHealthy Nov 15 '24
Anshul Kamboj potentially!!

u/homie2026 Nov 15 '24
Well someone remembered him. Also madhwal, though he disappointed this year but guy has great potential.

u/RealFriendlyPitbull India Nov 15 '24
i mean it would be stupid to drop Tilak now

u/AdonisBlackwood Nov 15 '24
Even Samson has made a case for himself

u/boobiefanatic Nov 15 '24
true, tilak and sanju have cemented their position in the team now

u/Sacred-Sand-3123 Nov 15 '24
India is playing 5 T20is against england back at home next Jan. gill will get at least 3 matches. He'll have to hit centuries too to fight for his place and have a fantastic IPL season as both captain and opening batter. It'll be a selector's headache then.

u/thenaivedude Nov 15 '24
Good to see Tilak filling the shoes of Coach, what a talent, what a player

u/Mendax9221 Nov 15 '24
So refreshing to see such young talents. I hope someday he gets to play odi and tests as well.
