Bunny Alert! Varun Chakaravarthy Finds Success Against Glenn Maxwell Again
Varun Chakaravarthy dismissed Glenn Maxwell for the sixth time in T20 cricket, highlighting his dominance over the Australian batter. Maxwell has been bowled five times by Chakaravarthy in just 11 matches, matching his dismissals by Jasprit Bumrah (5 in 28 matches) and Ravindra Jadeja (5 in 27 matches).
Only Jasprit Bumrah and Ravindra Jadeja have dismissed Maxwell more frequently, with seven times each, while Chakaravarthy trails closely with six times.
Match Context
Maxwell returned to the playing XI after recovering from injury. He came in at number seven with 70 runs needed from 41 balls. Tight bowling from Chakaravarthy, Arshdeep Singh, and Washington Sundar forced Maxwell into a risky slog.
He missed the ball completely, and it just kissed the wickets.
India had set Australia a target of 168 runs. Although Australia started well, they lost several wickets quickly and eventually lost the match by 48 runs. This victory gives India a 2-1 lead in the five-match series.
