Finally, someone said it: AB de Villiers thrilled as Harsha Bhogle plays down Tilak Varma 49 controversy

India Today  

Former South Africa batter AB de Villiers has backed celebrated broadcaster Harsha Bhogle's take on the 'obsession' with individual milestones in T20I cricket. Harsha Bhogle took to social media to share his views after Hardik Pandya faced flak for hitting a winning six in the 3rd T20I against the West Indies on August 8, leaving young Tilak Varma stranded on 49. The bone of contention is the incident where Indian captain Hardik Pandya hit a winning six, leaving his teammate Tilak Varma stranded on 49 runs. Instead of allowing Varma to score the winning runs and reach his half-century, Pandya chose to hit a six, thereby ending the game and leaving Varma stranded one run short of his milestone. — AB de Villiers August 10, 2023 Notably, former India opener Aakash Chopra had also expressed surprise at Hardik Pandya hitting the winning six when 2.1 overs were left in the chase.
