Tilak Varma’s Rise & Fall Explained | Is India’s No.3 in Trouble? Spin Weakness, Stats & Abhishek Fa
Tilak Varma looked unstoppable not long ago. A brilliant Asia Cup, two back-to-back fastest centuries on South African soil, and consistent impact in franchise cricket made him look like the perfect No.3 T20 batsman for India. But fast forward to the World Cup, and the story has changed. His rhythm is gone, his confidence looks shaken, and questions are now being raised about his place in the team.
In this video, we take a deep, data-driven look at Tilak Varma’s sudden dip in form and ask the big question:
Is this just a temporary slump, or is this a serious red flag for India in T20 cricket?
We break down:
Tilak Varma’s overall T20 numbers vs his World Cup performance
Why his average and strike rate have dropped so sharply at No.3
The real problem: his struggle against spin, especially right-arm leg spin and off-spin
How his dot-ball percentage has gone dangerously high, especially on Indian pitches
Why teams are targeting him with stump-to-stump spin bowling
The technical issues in his stance and head position, compared with elite No.3 batters
What the stats say about his scoring areas and why he’s not rotating strike fast enough
And most importantly, the Abhishek Sharma factor — how Tilak’s game opens up when Abhishek gives a fast start, and why he slows down when early wickets fall
We also show you, with clear numbers, how:
Tilak’s strike rate drops below 100 against certain types of spin
He is currently among the lowest strike-rate Indian batters against leg spin (minimum balls faced)
He struggles to score freely not just on good-length balls, but even on balls directed to the leg side
And why this becomes a big problem in T20 cricket, where every dot ball hurts your team
This is not a hate video. This is an honest cricket analysis of form, technique, match-ups, and team balance. We also discuss whether giving Tilak Varma a short break to reset, play domestic cricket, and work on his game could actually help him come back stronger — and why Abhishek Sharma’s form at the top might be the key to unlocking Tilak again at No.3.
If you care about Team India’s T20 future, batting balance, and real performance analysis instead of hype, this video is for you.
