After Rinku Singh, Tilak Varma wants to don the finisher's role

THIRUVANANTHAPURAM: Rinku Sharma performed the role of a finisher with aplomb against Australia in the first T20I against Australia. He later revealed how former Indian skipper MS Dhoni’s advice to remain calm under pressure helped him take his team to a nervy two-wicket win off the last ball in Visakhapatnam. It seems southpaw Tilak Varma wants to take a cue from Rinku’s innings and don the role of a finisher in the coming games.

“I like finishing games. But I am learning from Rinku. He is doing it consistently for India. I also want to do that. And in the coming matches, I will be doing that,” promises the 23-year-old.
