IPL 2026: Varun’s Ability Was Never In Doubt, Break Helped Him Bounce Back, Says Bravo
Kolkata Knight Riders: Kolkata Knight Riders mentor Dwayne Bravo said the bowling unit has benefited from Varun Chakravarthy’s return to form, adding that his ability to pick wickets was never in doubt and that a six-day mid-season break helped the wrist-spinner to bounce back.
Chakravarthy has turned his campaign around with two three‑wicket hauls in his last three outings. KKR’s fortunes have mirrored his form - they were winless in three games in IPL 2026 when he went wicketless, but have a 3‑1 record when he has picked two or more wickets in this season.
Overall, Chakaravarthy has 10 wickets from seven innings at an economy of 8.9, including best figures of 3-14. After going wicketless in his first three matches at an economy of 11.7, he has claimed 10 wickets in his last four games at 7.3 runs per over.
