Varun Chakravarthy Ruled Out of Afghanistan T20I Series Due to InjuryPreviousNext

India spinner Varun Chakravarthy has been ruled out of the ongoing T20I series against Afghanistan due to a fresh injury sustained after the first match at Arun Jaitley Stadium. The injury, identified as a side strain, follows a recent hamstring issue and raises doubts about his participation in the upcoming Asian Games. Chakravarthy had bowled effectively in the opener but will miss the remaining matches. The BCCI's Centre of Excellence has faced scrutiny over injury management amid recurring fitness concerns for the player.
