Once dubbed as the next big thing in Indian cricket, Varun Chakravarthy went off the radar after the T20 World Cup 2021. The mystery spinner earned his maiden World Cup call-up shortly after making his debut, as he impressed everyone during the IPL 2021 while playing for the Kolkata Knight Riders, but the marquee event did not favor him, and he ended his stint with just one wicket from the three games that he played in.

With high hopes of making a comeback and proving his worth, Chakravarthy said that he will be making the best of the Syed Mushtaq Ali Trophy and the IPL 2023 to make his case even stronger. The 31-year-old stated he is optimistic about making a comeback to the national team and claimed that the SMAT and the IPL next year will play a crucial role in his comeback.

“The Syed Mushtaq Ali Trophy is a very important platform for me. I’m sure that I’ll knock the doors down again because I’ve worked hard. Let’s see, if God is kind enough, I’ll get the chance again. Yeah, exactly. I do know SMAT is going to play an important role, as well as the next IPL. In these two tournaments, if I do well, I’ll get the chance again,” Chakravarthy told Sportskeeda.

I didn’t label myself a mystery spinner: Chakravarthy

When asked what his fans and followers can anticipate in the upcoming cricketing season, Chakravarthy remarked that the fans can expect him to be a better player this year, both physically and mentally, and underlined his promise to have a successful return to the squad. The cricketing fraternity named him India’s ‘mystery spinner’, but Chakravarthy refuted the notion with his usual coolness.

 “I’m basically a leggie who has other variations. I bowl a little quicker than the others. I didn’t label myself a ‘mystery spinner’; it just got stuck from the media. That’s how it happened. Yes, I’m someone who disguises his variations well but I don’t really consider myself a ‘mystery spinner’,” he added.
