Top-order batter Tilak Varma believes India T20I captain Suryakumar Yadav giving him the number three position has been the turning point of his batting career in the shortest format. 

"When Surya bhai gave me that No.3 position in South Africa, it was a turning point for me. So, I would like to congratulate and thank Surya bhai for that. As for this series, there is a left-right combination going on, so wherever I am needed, I am there. The flexibility is good, and I am adapting well to it. I am always ready," said Tilak to broadcasters Star Sports.
