In the IPL 2023 tournament, several players who were not in favor have displayed outstanding performances. These performances have brought them back into the spotlight and strengthened their case for being selected for the Indian team. Shikhar Dhawan has scored the most runs (349) for the Punjab Kings, and Ajinkya Rahane has surprised everyone with his batting for the CSK, scoring 245 runs.
According to ex-Indian spinner Harbhajan Singh, Varun Chakravarthy, the star spinner of Kolkata Knight Riders, has the potential to make a comeback to the Indian team in the near future. Varun Chakravarthy was in the T20I 2021 World Cup Squad and didn’t impress much. His fitness and frequent injuries were always on the negative side for him.
During his time with Kolkata Knight Riders in IPL 2021, Harbhajan Singh observed that Varun Chakravarthy faced several thigh-related issues but still played remarkably well even after receiving multiple injections. Currently, Varun has shed some weight and resolved his knee problems, resulting in an overall improvement in his performance. As a result, he is now in contention for a spot on the Indian team in the near future, according to Harbhajan Singh.
Varun Chakravarthy’s performance in this IPL edition has been fantastic till now. He is currently the most successful bowler for KKR in this IPL with 17 wickets in just 11 matches.
Kolkata Knight Riders will face Rajasthan Royals in the 56th match of IPL 2023. Let’s see if Varun Chakravarthy gets the Purple Cap or not.
