T20 WC: 'He Is Only One Game Away From Changing The Tide,' Says Santner On Varun's Poor Form
ICC T20 World Cup: New Zealand skipper Mitchell Santner believes India's Varun Chakaravarthy can still be a threat for his side in the final of the ICC T20 World Cup 2026 at the Narendra Modi Stadium on Sunday, saying that it will only take one match for the mystery spinner to get back in form.
Speaking ahead of the title clash, Santner, who is New Zealand's spin spearhead, defended Varun after he conceded 64 runs against England in the semi-final. The New Zealand skipper said bowling on a flat wicket is always difficult, and any bowler can have a tough day.
“I mean, we’ve all seen how good he is, and I think the challenge for any bowler is when it is flat, what does it look like when it’s spinning and when it’s seaming, it’s obviously a challenge for every batter but when it is flat what does that look like and I think everyone goes for 60 on their day,” Santner said in the pre match press conference.
