Even though he is currently playing in the t20 format, the chances are high for him to be considered in the world cup squad. Tilak Varma also had a successful IPL; in the 25 matches he played, he scored 740 runs.Player selection has never been easy for Team India, as the country is filled with talented players.

Captain Rohit Sharma recognizes the talent and hunger Tilak has but makes no strong comments about him playing for the world cup. India will be playing their final T20 against West Indies today; both teams have fought really well and are currently tied at 2-2; whoever wins this match will win the series.

Tilak Varma's performance will play a crucial role in helping team India make the runs.

He knows his batting so well. Sharma further said about Tilak Varma: When I speak with him I understand that the boy knows his batting – where he has to hit, what he has to do in that period. "That is all that I will say about him, I do not know about the World Cup and all, but definitely the guy is talented and he showed it in these few games that he has played for India".
