Star in-form India spinner Varun Chakravarthy has amazed everyone with his sensational performances. He has bowled for his side and has become the second-leading wicket-taker in the tournament. He also played a vital role in the team’s wins against New Zealand in the last league match and Australia in the first semi-final. 

He will play a vital role in the upcoming highly anticipated Final of the tournament between India and New Zealand. He could leave a great impact with his bowling performance and turning the fate of the game in India’s favour. 

With that said, here we’ll have a look at the three reasons why Varun Chakravarthy can be the Player of the Match for India in the final clash against New Zealand.

Current Bowling Form 

Varun Chakravarthy has been in an amazing run of form with the ball in the ongoing ICC Champions Trophy 2025. He has impressed everyone with his brilliant bowling in only two innings. He played his first game for India in the Champions Trophy 2025 game against New Zealand in the last league fixture. 

In his debut Champions Trophy 2025 game, he claimed a sensational five-wicket haul against New Zealand. Following this, he also impressed with his crucial and impactful performance against Australia in the first semi-final. 

Dubai’s spin-friendly track

The surface at the Dubai International Cricket Stadium in Dubai is known for its spin-friendly nature in the ongoing ICC Champions Trophy 2025. The average score here has only been 233 runs, which makes sense to bowl first and chase down the target in batting-friendly conditions of the second innings. 

Besides that, Varun Chakravarthy could play a vital role for his India side with support from the spin-friendly track of DICS in Dubai tomorrow on the day of the Final. He could be a big line of difference between win and New Zealand. 

Wicket-taking ability in crucial situations 

Besides the above-mentioned reasons, the major reason behind Varun Chakravarthy being the potential ‘Player of the Match award, is his wicket-taking ability in crucial situations that makes him stand out among all other bowlers. 

He has scalped 7 wickets in two innings, with a brilliant economy rate of 4.55, including a five-wicket haul against New Zealand and two big wickets, including one of opener Travis Head against Australia. Varun is also the second leading-wicket taker for India in the ongoing Champions Trophy 2025.
