[Watch] Tilak Varma chosen as MI's dressing room Player of the Match after his valiant 84* in losing cause against RCB

Mumbai Indians (MI) youngster Tilak Varma received the honor of being the dressing room player of the match for his scintillating knock against Royal Challengers Bangalore (RCB) on Sunday (April 2).

In an encore of the last season, Mumbai's top-order collapsed meekly without any significant contributions, leaving the young middle-order to do the heavy lifting. Tilak Varma (84* off 46 balls) once again shouldered the responsibility of reviving the innings and played a majestic knock to help MI to a respectable total of 171/7.

His efforts were in vain as RCB chased down the target easily in 16.2 overs after Virat Kohli and Faf du Plessis hit aggressive half-centuries.

The Mumbai Indians recently shared a video on their official Instagram handle to give fans a glimpse into the dressing room after their loss against RCB. Head coach Mark Boucher applauded the decent performers in the match and then announced Tilak Varma as the dressing room's player of the match in the video.

They captioned the post:

"For his sensational 8⃣4⃣* (46) @tilakvarma9 is our dressing room Player of the Match 💙 #OneFamily #MumbaiMeriJaan #MumbaiIndians #TATAIPL #IPL2023 #RCBvMI."
