Varun Chakravarthy was the top spinner for the India during ICC T20 World Cup 2021 last year. However, after his poor show in the tournament, he was not picked for any other national game later. In IPL 2022 too, the right-arm spinner failed to grab the limelight with 6 wickets in 11 games at an average of 55.33.

At his economy rate of 8.51, he was also expensive with the ball. Kolkata Knight Riders, who reached the finals in the IPL 2021 season, could not even qualify for playoffs in the IPL 2022. Hence, many players might be axed from the team and Varun Chakravarthy might be one of them. Here we talk about 3 teams that can target Chakravarthy in IPL 2022.

Mumbai Indians are the first team that can target Varun Chakravarthy in IPL 2023. The team could not grab some top spinners in the team during the previous auction. Murugan Ashwin and Mayank Markande are some spinners for the team but they could not come up with a good show in the last season. Hence, some like Chakravarthy will help the team to strengthen their spin attack in the next season.

Sunrisers Hyderabad is another team that can target Varun Chakravarthy in IPL 2023. SRH railed at the top position at the start but towards the end, they slipped to the bottom finishing at the 8th spot out of 10 in the points table.

With the pacers like Umran Malik, T Natarajan, and Bhuvneshwar Kumar, SRH has a good pace attack. However, they lack power in the spin department where Washington Sundar is the only good option. Hence, Varun Chakravarthy will be a superb choice for the team.

Chennai Super Kings is another team that can target Varun Chakravarthy in IPL 2022. CSK, who won the title in IPL 2021, finished in the second last spot in the last season with a poor show. Currently, Maheesh Theekshana is the only good spinner that the team has.

However, Theekshana is an off-spinner unlike Chakravarthy, who is a leg spinner. Hence, a powerful leg spinner might help CSK to strengthen their spin attacking the next season.
