Ricky Ponting on Varun Chakravarthy: A Game-Changer for Champions Trophy 2025?

 In a significant selection move for the upcoming Champions Trophy 2025, India has included Varun Chakravarthy in the squad, replacing Yashasvi Jaiswal. The mystery spinner recently showcased his brilliance in both T20 and ODI formats against England, solidifying his case for a spot in the marquee tournament.

With the Champions Trophy set to begin, a crucial question arises—can Varun Chakravarthy weave his magic on the grand stage? Former Australian captain Ricky Ponting believes the spinner has the potential to be a game-changer in the tournament.

‘Varun’s Skills Will Trouble Opposing Batters’ – Ricky Ponting

Speaking on the ICC Review, Ponting expressed confidence in Chakravarthy’s skill set and variations, stating that he could pose serious challenges for opposition batters. “Varun’s ability to deceive with his variations makes him a potent weapon. He is ready to leave an impact on the big stage,” Ponting remarked.

While Chakravarthy has primarily featured in T20 cricket, his selection for the Champions Trophy adds an intriguing dimension to India's bowling attack. He will join an already formidable spin department comprising Ravindra Jadeja, Kuldeep Yadav, Axar Patel, and Washington Sundar. Initially not part of the squad, Chakravarthy was drafted in as a late replacement for Jaiswal in the Rohit Sharma-led Indian team.
