Tilak Verma, who created a sensation with his bat in South Africa, has once again done a great job. Tilak Verma has reached number 3 in ICC T20 rankings. Tilak Verma reached number 3 in the latest rankings released on Wednesday. The big thing is that Tilak Verma has reached number 3 position by defeating 69 players. Tilak Verma was at number 72 before the series against South Africa, but after scoring two consecutive centuries in the series, his ranking has now become 3. Tilak Verma has also defeated Suryakumar Yadav. At the same time, Sanju Samson, who scored 3 T20 centuries in 5 matches, has also left far behind Tilak.
Sanju Samson’s T20 ranking
Like Tilak Verma, Sanju Samson also scored 2 centuries in the T20 series against South Africa, but this player was out on 0 twice as well, due to which he suffered a loss in the T20 rankings. Sanju Samson is at 22nd place. The big thing is that this player has achieved this position by defeating 17 batsmen.
Tilak Verma’s strong performance
Tilak Verma was out of Team India for some time but he got a chance in the South Africa series. Suryakumar Yadav gave him a chance to play at number 3 under his captaincy and he got the benefit of it. This 22 year old batsman first played an unbeaten inning of 107 runs in Centurion and after that he also scored an unbeaten 120 runs in Johannesburg. Tilak Verma scored 280 runs in this series at an average of 140. Tilak hit 20 sixes and 21 fours in this series. His strike rate was also 198.58. This is the reason why he got entry in the top 3 in the ICC T20 rankings.
Suryakumar Yadav’s loss
Suryakumar Yadav, who was once on top in the T20 rankings, has now fallen even below Tilak Verma. This player is at number 4 position. Surya’s bat did not work at all in the South Africa series. This player could score only 26 runs in 3 innings. His average was less than 9, as a result the Indian T20 captain suffered a loss in the ICC T20 rankings. India has got another good news in T20 rankings. Hardik Pandya has become the world number 1 T20 all-rounder. He has defeated Liam Livingston of England.
