After the match, former India cricketer Irfan Pathan explained why Varun Chakravarthy struggled in most of the T20 World Cup 2026 matches.
Samson was the linchpin for India's much-needed win over West Indies on March 1 at the Eden Gardens, Kolkata. West Indies went to bat first to score a challenging total of 195 in exchange for only 4 wickets.
Against the West Indies, Varun Chakravarthy conceded a total of 40 runs in 4 overs, claiming only one wicket. Over the last three matches, the spinner has taken three wickets but has conceded runs at an economy rate of 10.17, which is far away from his peak.
Varun Chakaravarthy will have to find a way to respond: Irfan Pathan
"As for Varun Chakaravarthy, I felt he would make a comeback on this pitch. However, when he is put under pressure, it seems like he loses control over the length that usually works for him. The batters are playing him well and reading him properly. So now Varun Chakaravarthy will have to find a way to respond and work out a solution", Irfan Pathan claimed, speaking in a YouTube video.
Irfan Pathan was impressed with Axar Patel's bowling vs West Indies
"At the same time, Axar Patel was also used cleverly. Before the left-handers could come in, he bowled two overs in the powerplay, which was a very good tactical move", the World Cup winner said in the same video after his opinion about Chakravarthy's form.
