Playing in his home ground… going to be a huge factor: Venkatesh Iyer on Varun Chakarvarthy ahead KKR vs CSK | Ipl News

Varun Chakarvarthy so far in the season has picked up six wickets from five games. Coming into the tournament he has been in sublime bowling form. However, for Kolkata Knight Riders like the team’s fortunes, his performances have been a mixed bag. However, team vice-captain Venkatesh Iyer is optimistic that Chakarvarthy playing at Chepauk against the Chennai Super Kings in his home ground is a “huge factor”.

“Irrespective of the conditions, I think Varun is a world-class spinner now. But yeah, him playing in his home ground is going to be of huge importance. It’s going to be a huge factor as well, also considering that Ajinkya played here for two years, and Moeen Ali played for two years. So, I think we’ve got a good think tank as well with regards to how this pitch will play.” Iyer said ahead of the game.

In addition to that Iyer also gave his view on KKR batting order and Andre Russell coming too low in the line-up .”I think from the analytics point of view, the entry point is a huge thing. Once you assess if a certain pitch is going to suit an individual or not, you decide his entry point whether it will be early or give him a few overs,” Iyer said.

“People [outside] would be talking about when he should come and when he should not. But we should not forget that we have Rinku Singh also. We have Ramandeep Singh also. Yes, Dre [Andre Russell] has been doing this for a very long time, but we have got able competition for him as well,” the 30-year-old went on to add.
