Can Varun Chakravarthy cure India's 'Head-ache' to avenge Ahmedabad heartbreak?

India Today  

The stage is set for another epic clash between the two heavyweights of international cricket as India and Australia are set to lock horns in the semi-final of the ICC Champions Trophy 2025. Champions Trophy: Full Coverage | Points Table Travis Head: India's nemesis across formats Head has been the thorn in India’s flesh since 2023 with his tremendous exploits across formats. With most of the Australian batters having not faced Chakravarthy, the wrist spinner could well cause problems for their star-studded batting line up and might also turn out to be the cure for India’s ‘Head-ache’. Hence, with India all set to face Travis Head without their star bowler Jasprit Bumrah, could Varun Chakravarthy be their best bet to dismiss him cheaply? It would be the perfect redemption for the wrist spinner after he was made a scapegoat of India’s worst-ever T20 World Cup campaign in 2021 as he went wicketless throughout the tournament.
