Μόνο ο Nur Ahmad, ο Chardul Thakur και ο Khalin Ahmed περισσότερες πύλες από ό, τι ο Varun Chakarawarti στην εποχή IPL 2025.
Varun Chakaravarthy has built on his incredible form. The Kolkata Knight Riders (KKR) mystery spinner spun a web around the Punjab Kings (PBKS) batter. The Shreyas Iyer-led side were already struggling, having lost 2 wickets by the time KKR captain Ajinkya Rahane introduced him in the 5th over of the match.
Varun Chakaravarthy sweeps Josh Inglis away
Chakaravarthy would have taken 8 wickets in the last 6 matches of the Indian Premier League (IPL) 2025 and claimed the wicket of Josh Inglis on his fifth ball. The wicketkeeper is one of the rare Australian batters who is known for his ability to play spin. But against Chakaravarthy, he didn’t stand a chance. Inglis went to sweep the ball, but the mystery spinner bowled a good-length ball that skidded off the surface and pegged the middle stump back.
Glenn Maxwell left stunned
Rahane then decided to hold Chakaravarthy for the middle overs. In the meantime, Harshit Rana and Anrich Nortje struck as PBKS slumped to 74/5. When the spinner came back in the tenth over, Glenn Maxwell and Shashank Singh looked to build a partnership.
But on the very first ball of his spell, Chakaravarthy bowled a beautiful googly that spun a mile and hit the middle stump. It was a short ball that Maxwell looked to play on the front foot, and there was no way he could have accounted for the fact that the ball would come in so much. A peach of a delivery, and there was nothing Maxwell could do about it.
“I felt good bowling today and it is definitely not a 110 wicket, more of a 180 wicket. I can’t be more happier playing with him (Sunil Narine), I am happy that I am in the same side as him. I have been working back-of-the-hand leg spin and I tried both (front and back of the hand) today and it came out decently well. When I bowled my 3rd and 4th over, the ball was skidding so much and it is 190 wicket,” Chakaravarthy said after the first innings.
