IPL 2019: Four debutants to look forward to 

#3 Varun Chakravarthy (India) by Kings XI Punjab for ₹8.40 crore

Varun Chakravarthy

Officially the most expensive player of the Vivo IPL 2019, Varun Chakravarthy would not have even imagined it in a dream. But now he has the reality to cherish. He is one of the numerous players who has come through ranks on the back of their domestic performances and has caught the eye of most franchises.

Known to have seven different variations, he has earned the tag of a mystery spinner. He bagged 31 wickets in the Chennai League 2017-18, spent time in the CSK nets, bowled to the KKR captain Dinesh Kartik and had a good TNPL 2018. He is promising and also impressed former Australian great Michael Hussey.

T20 cricket loves mystery spinners and the likes of Sunil Narine and Rashid Khan have proven why mystery spinners are match-winners. However, they can experience misery too like the Indian uncapped spinner KC Cariappa who created a lot of hype but failed to deliver.

Hence, he will have to be spot-on with his variations.
