#3 Varun Chakravarthy (Kings XI Punjab)
Varun Chakravarthy is a mystery spinner from the southern Indian state of Tamil Nadu. Chakravarthy initially played as a fast bowling all-rounder but a knee injury he sustained meant that he could not continue with fast bowling and hence forcing him to practice spin.
Chakravarthy rose to prominence after an impressive run in the Tamil Nadu Premier League 2018 where he was a major contributor in winning the title for his team Siechem Madurai Panthers.
According to the man himself, he holds seven different variations up his sleeve which he unleashed in the TNPL. This was the tournament where he bowled 40 overs out of which 125 deliveries were dots.
His services were later bought by KXIP for a gigantic INR 8.4 crores - the joint highest bid this year. He can be a great spin bowling asset to his side along with captain Ravichandran Ashwin.
