When Team India captain Suryakumar Yadav knocked on Tilak Varma`s hotel room door to tell him that he would be batting at number three in the third T20I match against South Africa, the youngster was filled with gratitude and promised his skipper to make it big.

Once he reached his 51-ball-century, second fifty coming in just 19 balls, Tilak Varma pointed towards the dug-out and blew a flying kiss to acknowledge his captain, who sacrificed his own batting position for the youngster.
