In a post-match conversation on Disney+ Hotstar, Piyush Chawla shared his thoughts on Varun Chakravarthy’s performance in the 3rd Ind vs Eng T20I: “Consistency in T20 cricket is never easy, but Varun has been exceptional. He’s been making batsmen play the wrong shots, which speaks volumes about his control and deception. That googly to dismiss Jofra Archer with his last ball was pure class. At this point, whenever India’s T20 squad is announced, his name is bound to be the first on the list.”

The rise of young Indian attackers can be one of the defining stories of Indian Super League (ISL) 2024-25. While Alaaeddine Ajaraie leads the goal-scoring charts with 15 strikes and Connor Shields spearheads the assists list with eight of them, there are a host of domestic playmakers who have been important to their team’s successes. Along with Shields, Wilmar Jordan Gil has been stellar for Chennaiyin FC in the frontline, netting eight of their 23 goals so far.
