Similarly, we all know that the Indian Premier League (IPL) has given many stars to India, and Tilak Verma is one of them. Tilak Verma plays for Mumbai Indians in IPL and in the year 2022, he made his debut in this league. In his debut season itself, this player impressed everyone with his performance, after which Tilak Verma did wonders in IPL 2023. Amazing maturity was seen in his game, on the basis of which he was selected for Team India on the West Indies tour. Here also Tilak Verma showed a good performance and this time the result was that he managed to make his place in Team India in big tournaments like the Asia Cup and now he is giving tough competition to good players to make a place in the playing XI. With the arrival of Tilak Verma, only the pain of Indian team captain Rohit Sharma is going to increase a lot.
Please tell that in the team selected for the Asia Cup, KL Rahul and Shreyas Iyer have also returned. Both the batsmen were troubled by injury and are returning after a long time. Regarding Rahul, however, chief selector Ajit Agarkar has said that he will be fit by September 2-3. This means that the chances of KL Rahul being a part of Team India against Pakistan on September 2 are slim but Shreyas Iyer is certain to play.

* Tilak Verma has the advantage of this:
When the captain of the Indian team, Rohit Sharma sits down to choose the playing XI, he will face the problem of whether to give a chance to Tilak Verma in the middle order or Iyer. Shreyas Iyer plays at number four in ODIs in Team India, he has also performed well at this number in the last few years but it is not easy for everyone to come back from injury. And in such a situation, there will be confusion on whether Shreyas Iyer can completely return to his old color. But Tilak Verma recently impressed everyone while batting at number four on the West Indies tour, so his claim at this number has also become very strong.
If Tilak Verma plays at number four, then he can fill a big gap in the team. Tilak Verma is a left-handed batsman and Team India does not have a left-handed batsman in the top order and model order. Ishaan is Kishan but it is not possible for him to play with openers like Shubman Gill and Rohit. With the arrival of Tilak Verma, there will be a variation in the middle order of Team India, which can put the opposition team in trouble. He can score fast runs and has the power to handle his innings, that is why there is a lot of talk about Tilak Verma playing at number four.

* Iyer's experience will come in handy:
Let me tell you that Shreyas Iyer brings experience with him, he is consistently performing very well at this number. Team India was struggling with the problem of number 4 for a long time but Shreyas Iyer solved this problem. With the FIFA World Cup starting on October 5, the more matches Iyer gets, the better it will be for him. If Shreyas Iyer can revive his old charm, then he can do the job very well, which is number 4's job. It is clear to say that Shreyas Iyer can also score fast runs when needed and can handle his innings easily with restraint.
