Tilak Varma’s IPL 2025 campaign has been marked by inconsistency and early struggles that raised concerns among Mumbai Indians fans. This has been highlighted even further in his performance today against the Punjab Kings (PBKS), where Varma was dismissed for just one-run after playing four deliveries. Despite showing promise in previous seasons, Varma began this year’s IPL with modest scores.
While he managed a few promising innings including 39 off 36 and a quick cameo of 10 off 5, he wasn’t delivering the kind of middle-order stability and acceleration MI needed. However, Varma showed signs of resurgence mid-season, responding with a couple of half-centuries, including a 26-ball fifty that helped MI post a strong total against Delhi Capitals. Despite this bounce-back, inconsistency has remained a concern, with recent knocks like 27 off 27 balls reflecting a lack of urgency during critical phases of the game.
MI hoping for Tilak Varma’s resurgence with IPL 2025 playoffs in sight
His recent poor outing against PBKS has only ignited the talks around his poor string of form and has churned out many reactions from fans. Here’s a look at some of those fan reactions on the social media platform X.
As MI prepares for the playoff matches in IPL 2025, Varma’s ability to consistently deliver impactful innings will be key to their success. But before that, they need to defeat PBKS in the ongoing match 69th of the Indian Premier League (IPL) 2025, to secure top two spot on the points table.
