‘I want to thank each one of you who has supported me. I have achieved what is every player’s dream to represent the country and wear the Indian flag is a dream I lived. I want to thank M.S Dhoni under whom I played my first ODI. I thank my role models Mohammad Kaif, Suresh Raina, RP Singh alongside whom I had the opportunity to debut my career for UPCA’, he added.
Aside from that, he also took the opportunity to thank MS Dhoni and his role models Mohammad Kaif, RP Singh, and Suresh Raina whom he happened to play with during his time in Uttar Pradesh.
Aside from his international playing experience, Tyagi managed to play a total of 23 List A matches and take part in two seasons of the IPL. Tyagi also played 41 first-class matches for UP.
