Varun Chakravarthy makes a shocking revelation about his Team India exit

After an impressive IPL season with the Kolkata Knight Riders (KKR), Varun made it into the Indian team for the 2021 T20 World Cup but had a below-par tournament.

Varun Chakravarthy makes a shocking revelation about his Team India exit

He might have left many batters confused with his mystery spin but Varun Chakravarthy was himself left guessing about his Team India exit and injury 'rumours'.

In a chat with CricXtasy, he said, 'It was very tough because right after I finished the World Cup, it was not a big injury; it was a very small injury. It just took me two or three weeks to be back on track, but after that, I got sidelined, and people kept giving the same excuse that I am injured, but on the other hand, I was not injured all that while.'

'I don't know, [if] it was just a rumour, or someone just wanting to spread this news about me so that they can sideline me. But that's how life is; it is unfair. It was very hard on me,' he added.

After an impressive IPL season with the Kolkata Knight Riders (KKR), Varun made it into the Indian team for the 2021 T20 World Cup but had a below-par tournament.

He was dropped from the Indian team and hasn't played an international game since then. He also had a poor IPL season after that.

'IPL 2022 was not a great season because what happened in 2021 after the World Cup got within me, and I was very desperate to be back in the Indian side. So I wanted to prove to everyone. I was being very desperate. I started changing many things in my bowling, which finally affected my mental peace, and I was not able to do my normal bowling also. So that IPL was bad for me,' he further said.
