IND vs SA: After the defeat in the second T20 match, now Team India will try to make a comeback in the Dharamshala T20 match. The batsmen of the Indian team had performed very shamefully in the last match. Cricket pundits believe that frequent changes in the batting order are also a reason behind this. Fans are also not very happy with these continuous changes. In such a situation, a big question is being raised on the Indian team management. To which Tilak Verma has now given the answer in the press conference.

Tilak Verma told why changes are happening

Head coach Gautam Gambhir and captain Suryakumar Yadav constantly reshuffle the batting order. Now fans want to know the reason behind this. Answering this question in the pre-match press conference held before the Dharamsala T20 match, star batsman Tilak Verma said, ‘Except the opening batsmen, everyone can play in any order. I can play anywhere from number three to number six, wherever the team needs me. If every team feels that a decision is important from the strategic point of view, then everyone is with it. A match can go wrong. Akshar Patel performed well here. It depends on the circumstances. It is clear from Tilak’s statement that these changes are not going to stop for now.

Tilak also spoke on the pitch of Dharamshala

Toss and pitch also play a big role in T20 matches. Tilak Verma has also talked about it before the match. Speaking about the Dharamshala pitch, Tilak Verma said, ‘I have played the Under-19 series for India here before. We are looking at the wicket and feel that a lot of runs will be scored. The toss is not in our hands. We are ready to face the challenge of dew and have practiced with a slightly wet ball. The weather is quite cold here but we are prepared physically and mentally. Mentally strong people win everywhere.
