Harbhajan Singh Backs Varun Chakravarthy After Mixed T20 World Cup Performance

Varun Chakravarthy, India's mystery spinner, faced scrutiny for a high economy rate of 9.25 during the 2026 T20 World Cup despite finishing as the joint-second highest wicket-taker with 14 wickets. Former spinner Harbhajan Singh praised Chakravarthy as a champion bowler, recalling his early potential spotted during 2018 Chennai Super Kings nets. Chakravarthy acknowledged challenging conditions but aims to regain form ahead of future tournaments, with competition from other spinners intensifying.
