T20 WC: Basic Plan Is To Take Wickets And Keep Attacking The Stumps, Says Chakaravarthy
Arun Jaitley Stadium: India wrist-spinner Varun Chakravarthy said he focused on perfecting his basic plan of taking wickets aplenty and continuing to attack the stumps helped him pick a three-wicket haul which broke the back of Namibia’s chase and gave the co-hosts a massive 93-run victory in a Group A clash at the Arun Jaitley Stadium on Thursday.
Since the 2024 World Cup win, Chakravarthy has emerged as India’s premier middle-overs weapon in T20Is by picking the most wickets in the middle overs phase, where he mixes relentless accuracy with subtle variations to control that crucial stretch. His record against right-handers is unmatched in the same period, as seen from him castling Louren Steenkamp and JJ Smit with immaculate ease.
"I have definitely worked on few aspects of bowling such as speed and more revs. People do work on variations also, but I worked on perfecting my existing balls so that helped a lot. I worked on my follow through so that I can get more zip off the wicket. My plan is to take wickets and keep attacking the stumps - that's the basic plan," Varun told reporters in the mixed zone at the conclusion of the game.
