In both the earlier matches, captain Suryakumar Yadav had come to bat at number 3, but in Centurion he gave a chance to Tilak Verma to bat. After the match, Surya explained the reason behind this. Talking about Tilak Verma, Suryakumar Yadav said that he came to my room. He told me to give me a chance at number 3, I want to perform well. I said go and express yourself. Tilak did the same in the competition. I am very happy for him and his family. He said that we played the same brand of cricket that we talked about in the team meeting. We have been asking the players to do what they do for the franchise, what they do in the nets. I am very happy with the way things are going.
