IPL2021:”Dream come true moment” for Varun Chakravarthy
Kolkata Knight Riders spinner Varun Chakravarthy added a fan moment
to what has been a fairytale 12 months for him as he met Master Blaster Sachin Tendulkar following the fixture against the Mumbai Indians.
The KKR cricketer took to his official Twitter account on Friday to post a picture of himself with the legendary Tendulkar. He posted the picture with one of Tendulkar’s famous lines and wrote:

Chakravarthy had yet another stellar outing in the game against the Mumbai Indians on Thursday. The mystery spinner may not have taken a wicket but his miserly bowling proceeded to create a stranglehold on the MI batsmen. He ended up with figures of 0/22 in four overs.
Thanks to his performances in the IPL, Chakravarthy earned a call-up to the Indian T20 squad for the Australian tour. However, he ended up missing the tour due to a shoulder injury.
Chakravarthy continued to perform well for KKR in the first leg of the 14th season, which ultimately earned him his maiden cap for the Indian team against Sri Lanka back in July.
