Mumbai Indians players are slowly joining the team ahead of the Indian Premier League 2025 season. Hardik Pandya, Tilak Varma, and Trent Boult are some of the players who have already joined the squad. Tilak Varma, in fact, was seen playing with Pandya’s son Agastya. The four-year-old stunned Tilak with an incredible show of sportsmanship.
In a video uploaded by the Mumbai Indians social media team, Tilak can be seen bowling to Agastya. Hardik Pandya’s son, who bats left-handed like his uncle Krunal, was playing his shots against Tilak. On one of the balls, Agastya got out while trying to hit a six. As Agastya proceeded to hand the bat to Tilak, the Indian batter kindly asked him to continue batting.
However, to Tilak’s shock, Agastya told him, “Out means out,” and it was his turn to bowl. Varma, perplexed, looked at the video camera and said that he had never heard something like that from a child that young, who usually wants to continue batting no matter what.
Meanwhile, Mumbai has assembled one of the strongest squads seen in recent times for the upcoming season of the IPL. They did an incredible job at the mega-auction to buy a supporting cast for the players they had already retained.
