Varun Chakaravarthy Explains 'Gautam Gambhir Factor' Behind Roaring Form
Mystery spinner Varun Chakaravarthy has described the three-year gap from international cricket as "tough," but credited the intense domestic grind and the role clarity provided by new head coach Gautam Gambhir for helping him to regain his lost form. The 33-year-old spinner recorded his career-best figures of 5 for 17 in Sunday's second T20I against South Africa, though his efforts could not prevent India from losing by three wickets. Reflecting on his return to the national side, Chakaravarthy said that Gambhir's guidance had been pivotal.
