IPL 2025: Varun Chakaravarthy looks to start from zero after Champions Trophy glory

The Hindu  

Kolkata Knight Riders spinner Varun Chakaravarthy understands that the Champions Trophy glory is behind him and he must start afresh against Royal Challengers Bengaluru in the Indian Premier League-18 at the Eden Gardens here on Saturday. “I did well in the last tournament but IPL is a different ball game and it’s a different beast,” said Varun at the pre-match press conference here on Friday. Looking forward to a great start, RCB coach Andy Flower said some leaders in the side, including Virat Kohli, Phil Salt, Josh Hazelwood and Krunal Pandya, would assist new captain Rajat Patidar. He is really excited about his challenge.” Flower said the rule allowing a second ball during the chase would beat the dew factor and make an evening match a fair contest between the bat and the ball.
