NEW DELHI: India spinner Varun Chakaravarthy made a remarkable comeback to the national team after a gap of 1066 days, having last played in India's disappointing 2021 T20 World Cup campaign. In his return match against Bangladesh in Gwalior on Sunday, he recorded his best figures of 3 for 31, contributing in India's seven-wicket victory in the first T20I of the three-match series.
Despite a challenging start, conceding 15 runs in his opening over, Varun bounced back by dismissing Towhid Hridoy in his second over and Jaker Ali in his third.
