Chakravarthy has taken just four wickets in five matches for KKR this season. Worst, the left-handers are also finding it easy to score runs off his bowling. The mystery spinner though said the batters will pick his variations and he needs to adapt better.

“It is bound to happen. People will have plans against me. It is just the way it is. Last season, in the Indian leg, I had 6 to 7 wickets in 7 matches. Later on, I picked up more wickets. So, you cannot predict how many wickets you are going to get,” Varun said in response to a question by TimesofIndia.com during a media interaction.

“You just can’t predict. It is bound to be like that. I can’t complain much about it. I need to find a way to adapt to the situations better,” the 30-year-old further said.

Varun had entered the IPL 2019 auction at a base price of Rs. 20 lakh and was bought by Kings XI Punjab for Rs 8.40 crore, 42 times his base price. He could only feature in one game for Punjab Kings (against Kolkata Knight Riders) though and returned figures of 1/35 in 3 overs before an injury ruled him out of the tournament.

He was released by the Punjab side ahead of the 2020 IPL auction, in which the mystery spinner was bought by KKR for Rs 4 crore. Since then he has become a permanent member of the side. He has played 35 matches for KKR and claimed 39 wickets so far. He was the highest wicket-taker for KKR in the 2020 and 2021 seasons.

Varun is banking on a new variation now – ‘leg-spin’ – to take his game to another level. He already has offbreak, legbreak, Googly, Carrom ball, Flipper, Topspinner and slider in his spin armoury.

What other variations do you still have to use in the league?
To this Varun said: “I am working on a (certain kind of) leg spin. I have been working on it for the last two years now”.

“I am quite there and have bowled it in a few matches as well. I have got a wicket out of that also. I am a little more confident about it and bowling that,” he further said.
