The Statesman|November 12, 2024
Spinner Varun Chakravathy's maiden five-wicket haul in T20 Internationals might have come in a losing cause for India in the second T20I against South Africa in Gqeberha on Sunday, but the 33-year-old is happy with the role clarity provided by head coach Gautam Gambhir on his comeback to the national side after a three-year hiatus.

Chakravarthy clinches maiden T20I fifer after getting role clarity

With only 125 runs to defend against a power-packed Proteas batting lineup, India weren't the favourites when South Africa began their chase on Sunday.

But the visitors shifted the momentum in their favour as Varun came into the attack.

In his quota of four overs, he snapped his maiden five-wicket haul for India, conceding merely 17 runs for the same. The spell, albeit in a losing cause, shed more light on the recent form of the Tamil Nadu tweaker in India's T20I side.
