Varun Chakravarthy exorcises ghosts of Dubai वरुण चक्रवर्ती ने दुबई के भूतों को भगा दिया:to complete the redemption arc.
Varun Chakravarthy and the Dubai International Cricket Stadium (DICS)
DICS appear to have a karmic relationship. He was initially spotted here in 2021 by then-India coach Ravi Shastri, who deemed him a match-winner and suggested that he be added to the Test squad for the upcoming tour of Australia.
Days later, when Pakistan cruised to a resounding 10-wicket victory in the Twenty20 World Cup, Babar Azam and Muhammad Rizwan treated him like a club cricketer. In the same competition, he was also asked to open the bowling against New Zealand, but he once again returned without a wicket. Clearly his so-called’mystery’ had evaporated.
His mystique and his magic returned on Sunday night. India fielded a strong, experimental side with four spinners and just one specialist pacer because the game makes no sense. As India registered a sensational 44-run win in a very low-scoring encounter, Chakravarthy, the fourth spinner, immediately made his mark, returning with a five-wicket haul and banishing the ghosts of 2021.
Yes, of course, we didn’t have a great tournament in 2021, and I didn’t have a great tournament either. However, I believe I bowled quite well. However, the results didn’t go our way. But for now, it feels good. Looking back, Chakravarthy said, “And Team India is doing well.”
He troubled the New Zealand batsmen three times in ten overs with a variety of strokes, leaving the Indian team management in a dilemma whether to pick him for the quarterfinal match against Australia in a few days. “I wanted to find out what he could provide because he had a unique quality. We haven’t thought much about the next game, but it’s a good headache to have,” captain Rohit Sharma remarked after the game.
“Oh, they bowled brilliantly, didn’t they?”, said New Zealand pacer Matt Henry, who took five wickets during the game. “I think they showed their skill tonight, the way they moved the ball both ways, and the way they could bowl fast. I thought they were brilliant.” Henry and Chakravarthy had identical figures: 5 for 42.
Captain Mitchell Santner Says Varun:
As their captain Mitchell Santner said, India’s four fine spinners put a lot of pressure on the New Zealand batsmen, who were reeling at 93 for two and were chasing a target of 250. Naturally, Chakravarthy – who incidentally was playing his second ODI – was the most notable of the four.
जैसा कि उनके कप्तान मिशेल सेंटनर ने कहा, भारत के चार बेहतरीन स्पिनरों ने न्यूजीलैंड के बल्लेबाजों पर काफी दबाव डाला, जो 250 के लक्ष्य का पीछा करते हुए 93 रन पर दो विकेट खो चुके थे। स्वाभाविक रूप से, चक्रवर्ती – जो संयोग से अपना दूसरा एकदिवसीय मैच खेल रहे थे – इन चारों में सबसे उल्लेखनीय थे।
Chakravarthy is an enigma as a bowler. According to Rohit Sharma, a noted bowler, Chakravarthy doesn’t bowl all his variations, even in the nets. To avoid being picked on by batsmen, he keeps the mystery aspect close to his chest.
चक्रवर्ती एक गेंदबाज के रूप में एक पहेली हैं। जाने-माने गेंदबाज रोहित शर्मा के अनुसार, चक्रवर्ती अपनी सभी वैरिएशन का इस्तेमाल नहीं करते, यहाँ तक कि नेट्स में भी नहीं। बल्लेबाजों द्वारा परेशान किए जाने से बचने के लिए, वह रहस्यपूर्ण पहलू को अपने पास ही रखते हैं।
But on Sunday, he felt like elaborating on his bowling technique. “Basically, the ball goes straight, in and out. So, you can leave it like that, but you can also make small changes to it,” he said, explaining his bowling. If only it were that easy. He is as difficult to figure out as playing a white ball against a white ball because of how subtly he has that sense of mystery.
Batsmen who have played against him can attest to this. His point of delivery, drift in the air, and variation in length and pace are some of the subtleties that are difficult to spot. Another important trait of Chakravarthy, who mostly uses deceit, is accuracy. He is challenging to spot, and it is a double whammy for batsmen when the wicket is helping, as it was on Sunday night at DICS.
Captain Mitchell Santner was out:
Of the 60 balls Chakravarthy bowled, the five most crucial ones – the ones that resulted in wickets – may not have been his best overs of the evening, but he still completed his allotted 10 overs. Will Young became Chakravarthy’s first victim when he played a ball onto the stumps. After hitting a six, Glenn Phillips got a little too ambitious, Michael Bracewell was trapped LBW, and Mitchell Santner was out to a seam-up delivery that had no real charm. Finally, Matt Henry was dismissed as he tried to bowl too quickly. However, his success in those innocent-looking deliveries was probably due to the quality and deception of the other 55 deliveries.
“Yes, I think I can do it better,” he said later without apology. “But it’s definitely not what I would call luck. However, it was undoubtedly pre-determined. I arranged every delivery. And if it happens it happens. You can’t call anything that happens in cricket “luck”.
33 वर्षीय चक्रवर्ती, जो मुख्य रूप से टी20 क्रिकेट के लिए रहस्यपूर्ण हैं, के लिए जब भी वनडे में पर्याप्त समय होता है, तो यह हमेशा संघर्षपूर्ण होता है। चूंकि बल्लेबाज अक्सर वनडे के विपरीत टी20 में उन पर आक्रमण करने के लिए दौड़ पड़ते हैं, इसलिए उन्हें छोटे प्रारूप में लाभ होता है। लेकिन तमिलनाडु और कोलकाता नाइट राइडर्स के स्पिनर ने घरेलू 50 ओवर के विजय हजारे प्रतियोगिता में अपने कौशल को निखारते हुए सुधार किया है।
“It helped me understand when I can bowl my incoming delivery, outgoing delivery or a straight delivery,” Chakravarthy said of his change in the 50-over format. “After that, I got a better sense of when I have to bowl. It’s very different from what I do in T20s. In other words, I had to play a lot more.
That change will be put to the ultimate test when India play Australia in the semi-finals on Tuesday.
