Tilak Verma and Suryakumar Yadav
India vs England T20I Series: The five-match T20 match series between India and England is starting from January 22. The Indian team has been announced for this. Suryakumar Yadav will once again be seen captaining the side. The Indian team had earlier played T20 against South Africa, since then only a few changes have been made in the team. Meanwhile, a new battle will be seen between Suryakumar Yadav and Tilak Verma during the series. Both the batsmen are very close in the ICC T20 rankings. Whichever player scores more runs in the England series will have a chance to move ahead in the ICC rankings as well.
Tilak Verma and Sanju Samson had performed amazingly in the series against South Africa.
The rating of Indian players in ICC T20 rankings has not changed for a long time. Indian players had performed amazingly in the India vs South Africa series, after which they also got a lot of benefits. In particular, Tilak Verma not only confirmed his place in the top 10 by scoring two back to back centuries, but also reached number three by defeating his own captain Suryakumar Yadav. Sanju Samson also got benefit. After that, Team India will now enter the field for the T20 International match.
Very little difference between Tilak Verma and Suryakumar Yadav
Tilak Verma may have reached number three in the ICC T20 rankings, but Suryakumar Yadav is not far behind him. Tilak Verma’s rating is currently 806 and Suryakumar Yadav is at number four with a rating of 788. That means neither there is much difference in ranking nor difference in rating. In such a situation, when this five-match series ends, any player can come out ahead. Apart from these two batsmen in the top 10, the third player is Yashasvi Jaiswal, who is not a part of this series. That means their ranking may be affected, but the rating will remain the same.
Who will play at number three is a big question
In the series against South Africa, captain Suryakumar Yadav left his number three position and gave Tilak Verma a chance there and he liked this number. He created a stir by scoring two back to back centuries. First he played an inning of 107 runs and after that he scored 120 runs. The special thing was that Tilak remained unbeaten both the times. After this, he will again enter the field for the T20 International match. Now it will be interesting to see which batsman will be at number three in this series. Will Suryakumar Yadav play his old position again or will he give a chance to Tilak Verma. But it is certain that after this series, many changes will be seen in the ICC T20 rankings.
