Chopra believes that the Indian selectors could start looking at other options if Sundar does not contribute more with the ball. He even suggested Tilak Varma as the best option if the team management and selectors focus on the runs more than the bowling part. Amid this, Washington Sundar was ruled out of the England ODI decider after a hamstring injury.
In that case, the cricket pundit has suggested Tilak Varma would be the best option. Washington has played both the first and second ODIs against England. However, he was not used much with the ball. Since he is picked in the team mainly because he can bat as well as bowl, many believe that the all-rounder needs to make a bigger impact with the ball.
Tilak Varma backed as a stronger batting option by Aakash Chopra
Aakash Chopra said in a video on his YouTube channel, “If Washi's bowling numbers don't improve, why would you carry him? If he is not bowling, he is not an all-rounder. If he has to only bat, Tilak Varma can also do that, or someone else can do that. Plenty of things might actually happen, but it's not a bad suggestion.”
He is mostly expected to bat, or else he delivers as a batter, not as much as a bowler. It's a valid question because if you are searching for a batter who can bowl a few overs, Tilak will also bowl as many overs, and Tilak will bat better than Washi.”
Aakash Chopra urges selectors to reward Tilak Varma with an ODI spot
He signed off by saying, “So, if he is your T20I vice-captain, why not invest a little more faith in Tilak's abilities so that you make him a part of ODIs as well? I think that can also happen. I feel we will see a lot of changes until 2027 and players coming and going.”
