The stylish <a href="https://www.mid-day.com/sports/cricket/article/i-am-learning-how-to-finish-games-from-rinku-tilak-varma-23321847" target="_blank" rel="none noopener">Tilak Varma</a> wouldn't mind some quality batting time before his possible exit from the playing eleven as the Indian team aims to take an unassailable lead in the IND vs AUS 3rd T20I on Tuesday.
Shreyas Iyer, who was given a week's rest after the <a href="https://www.mid-day.com/sports/cricket/article/australia-exposed-indias-little-chinks-in-world-cup-final-manjrekar-23321848" target="_blank" rel="none noopener">World Cup final</a>, will join the squad for the last two games in Raipur and Bengaluru, taking vice-captaincy duties from <a href="https://www.mid-day.com/sports/cricket/article/half-tons-full-steam-23321943" target="_blank" rel="none noopener">Ruturaj Gaikwad</a>.
That effectively means that Iyer will walk into the playing XI and there is a strong possibility that he will replace Tilak. The replacement has more to do with combination rather than form.
After near-flawless batting performance in back-to-back games, the new-look Indian team would like to keep its foot firmly on the pedal on a Barsapara Stadium track that has traditionally been a batting belter. And there is no reason to think that the 22-yard strip is any different this time also.
The 40,000 spectators, expected to fill up the stands, would expect a run-feast from the talented Indian batting unit, which would want to add to the 36 boundaries and 24 maximums it has collectively hit across the two games.
