Cricket is a game of uncertainties. What one expects may not happen at times with the least expected one taking place. From the result of the game to the performance of a team or a player, it is really hard to be sure about how anything or anyone would fare in a particular game or tournament. However, this feature only makes the game more beautiful. What adds more interest to it is the non-sporting activities that take place around the game. Sometimes it is the reaction of fans or sometimes it is the surprising actions of the players themselves that keep the flavour of the game intact.

Tilak Varma has looked highly promising in his first three T20I matches for the Indian team. So far, the youngster has registered scores of 39, 51 and 49 not out in the first three T20Is against the West Indies. India now trail 1-2 in the five-match series after beating West Indies in the third T20I in Guyana on Tuesday. With India needing to win both matches in order to clinch the series, Tilak is on the cusp of surpassing Virat Kohli in an elite T20I list.
Former Pakistan wicketkeeper Kamran Akmal was left in awe of Suryakumar Yadav's brilliance after the India batter guided his side to a seven-wicket win over West Indies in the third T20I of the five-match series in Guyana on Tuesday. Suryakumar was back to his disdainful best as India stayed alive in the series against the Carribean side. West Indies skipper Rovman Powell's whirlwind 40 not out off 19 balls pushed the hosts to 159 for five after Kuldeep Yadav (3/28) stemmed the flow of runs in the middle overs. Debutant Yashavi Jaiswal (1) and Shubman Gill (6) got out cheaply in run chase before Suryakumar came up with a special 83 off 44 balls to help India gun down the target in 17.5 overs.
Former India spinner Pragyan Ojha wants the team management to explore the possibility of fast-tracking young batter Tilak Varma into the side for the no. 4 slot. Tilak made his India debut earlier this month and made an instant impact. So far, he has played three T20Is and registered scores of 39, 51 and 49, respectively, against the West Indies. Ojha feel that due to the lack of left-handed batters in India's top-order, Tilak could be the perfect fit for the team going into the future.
India captain Hardik Pandya gifted a match ball to a fan after the visitors defeated West Indies in the third T20I at the Providence Stadium in Guyana on Tuesday. This came after Hardik's shot accidentally hit the fan on her chin during a practice session. After the match, Hardik made sure that he greeted the fan, and also decided to give the young girl an autographed match ball. Hardik's gesture towards the young fan has now gone viral on social media.
Trailing 0-2 in the five-match series, India defeted West Indies in the third T20I to reduce the deficit, ahead of this weekend's double-header in Lauderhill, California. Chasing a target of 160, the visitors brushed off the early dismissals of openers Yashasvi Jaiswal and Shubman Gill to win the game by seven wickets. Suryakumar Yadav was the wrecker-in-chief, smashing 83 off just 44 balls, while Tilak Varma maintained his dream run in international cricket, hitting an unbeaten 49 off 37 balls.
