Bunny Alert! Varun Chakaravarthy Finds Success Against Glenn Maxwell Again
The mystery spinner Varun Chakaravarthy dismissed Glenn Maxwell for the sixth time in T20 cricket, adding to his notable record against the Australian batter. Maxwell has been bowled five times by Chakaravarthy in T20s, tying with Jasprit Bumrah and Ravindra Jadeja for the most dismissals by any bowler.
- 5 dismissals vs Varun Chakaravarthy (11 matches)
- 5 dismissals vs Jasprit Bumrah (28 matches)
- 5 dismissals vs Ravindra Jadeja (27 matches)
Only Jasprit Bumrah and Ravindra Jadeja, with 7 dismissals each, have dismissed Maxwell more often than Chakaravarthy, who has 6.
Maxwell returned to the playing XI after recovering from injury. He came in at number seven with 70 runs needed off 41 balls. However, tight bowling from Chakaravarthy, Arshdeep Singh, and Washington Sundar pressured the Australian batter into attempting a slog. He missed the ball entirely, and it grazed the stumps, resulting in his dismissal.
India had set Australia a target of 168 runs. Although Australia started well, they lost several wickets in quick succession and ultimately lost the match by 48 runs. With this victory, India leads the five-match series 2-1. The teams will face off again at the Gabba on November 8 (Saturday).
"He missed the ball completely, and it just kissed the wickets."
