IPL 2025: Modern-day Cricket Is More Tactical, Says Jayawardene On Tilak Varma's 'injured-out' Decision
Indian Premier League: As the debate on his decision to get Tilak Varma injured-out in the Indian Premier League (IPL) match against Lucknow Super Giants, Mumbai Indians head coach Mahela Jayawardene has once again defended his decision.
With the Mumbai Indians needing quick runs in their chase of 204 at the Ekana Stadium in Lucknow, the team management asked Varma, who was struggling to put away the ball and had managed to score only 25 from 23 balls, to come back to the dugout and send Mitchell Santner instead to blast a few big ones.
Mumbai lost the match by 12 runs, and the move by the team management kicked up a storm on social media, with many former India players criticising it and terming it a blunder by MI, which will impact the morale of the players.
