IPL 2021: Best uncapped XI ahead of the season
Players like Yuzvendra Chahal, Jasprit Bumrah, and Hardik Pandya came into the reckoning thanks to the IPL.
10. Varun Chakravarthy
In another world, Varun Chakravarthy would have probably made his Indian debut during the T20I series against Australia, and it would have been T Natarajan included in this XI. But that isn’t the case, as Chakravarthy injured himself just before the series which opened the door for the SRH pacer to make his debut instead.
He picked up 17 wickets in 13 games last season at a strike rate of 18.35 and conceded at just 6.84 per over. He was highly consistent and often bowled miserly spells as is evidenced by his economy rate. His 5/20 against the Delhi Capitals was simply breathtaking and it was that performance that quite possibly sealed his place in the Indian squad.
The KKR player has a lot of variations up his sleeve and has built a reputation for himself as a mystery spinner. Given that he was there in the Indian squad recently, he is certainly on the radar of the Indian selectors and he will surely be given a chance in the future.
