Lucknow Super Giants: Former India cricketer Surinder Khanna has called Mumbai Indians’ decision to retire out Tilak Varma both “shocking and surprising”, questioning the impact such a move could have on a young player’s confidence.

The incident took place during Mumbai’s tense 204 run-chase against Lucknow Super Giants on Friday when head coach Mahela Jayawardene opted for a rare tactical substitution in the final overs.
