Former India cricketer Krishnamachari Srikkanth criticizes Tilak Varma’s batting following India’s tour of Ireland and England. In his comments, Srikkanth says he had earlier suggested that Varma should be dropped, citing what he describes as poor performance during the tour. He refers to Varma as “clueless,” characterizing the player’s form as inadequate for the level expected in international cricket.
The remarks come in the context of Varma’s role as India’s T20I vice-captain. According to the report, Srikkanth’s criticism focuses on Varma’s batting output during the tour and implies that team selections should reflect the performances shown in those matches. The article presents the former batter’s assessment without reporting any direct response from Varma or India’s selectors, and frames the statements as personal criticism by Srikkanth based on Varma’s displays in that period.
