In the first match against Bangladesh, Varun Chakraborty took three important wickets and in the second match, he bowled even better than the first match. He bowled with more confidence. He continuously bowled on the stumps line due to which Bangladesh batsmen failed to play big shots. This is a very good sign for him. After all, why do you want to feed Varun Chakraborty?

You included Chahal in the World Cup but did not give him a chance to play even a single match: Aakash Chopra Regarding Yuzvendra Chahal, Aakash Chopra said, ‘You included Chahal in the team. If Varun Chakraborty can do this at the age of 33 then why not Chahal? You included him in the team in the World Cup but he did not get a chance to play in a single match.

In the 2024 IPL, his partnership with Narine in spin bowling and average of 19.14 played a crucial role in the franchise’s first IPL win in 10 years and third title overall.

Nair further said- He had the same mindset, so this time he scored some runs in Vijay Hazare and sent me a video saying that I hit two sixes and scored 40 runs.
