Tilak Varma is on a roll, and there's no stopping him. The Mumbai Indians star and Hyderabad skipper smashed his third consecutive T20 century, this time in the Syed Mushtaq Ali Trophy 2024-25 opener against Meghalaya.

Tilak Varma Scripts History in SMAT Opener

And it wasn’t just another ton, it was a record-breaking knock. Tilak Varma scored a mind-blowing 151 off just 66 balls, hitting 14 fours and 10 sixes. He brought up his ton in just 51 balls and made sure Hyderabad posted a massive 248/4, the highest individual score in the tournament's history.

This sensational run of form is sure to delight Mumbai Indians. The franchise recently retained Tilak for IPL 2025, and it's safe to say they've made the right call. With this form, Tilak is shaping up to be their go-to player for next season.


Tilak Varma’s Blistering Recent Form

Tilak’s fireworks aren’t just limited to domestic cricket. Earlier this month, he smashed back-to-back T20I centuries for India against South Africa. He's now only the second Indian, after Sanju Samson, to score two consecutive T20I tons. His performances earned him the Player of the Series award, and rightly so.

If that wasn't enough, Tilak also shot up the ICC T20I rankings. He jumped 69 spots to take third place, sitting behind Travis Head and Phil Salt. He's now India's top-ranked T20I batter, and at just 21 years old, that's a massive achievement.

With centuries coming thick and fast off his bat and records breaking, Tilak is making the world take note of him. Whether on the global stage or in domestic tournaments, the young batter is delivering big. If he maintains his form and scores runs consistently, the sky's the limit for this young superstar.
