Team India will lock horns with New Zealand in the final at the Narendra Modi Stadium in Ahmedabad on Sunday, March 8. The Men in Blue defeated England in the second semifinal. Notably, the hosts might consider a change or two for the big game, as some key players are not in form at the moment.
However, Munaf excluded Varun Chakaravarthy from the lineup. Varun was impressive in the group-stage games, taking 9 wickets in four matches. However, he hasn't been the same bowler since South Africa took him down in the Super 8 clash.
In the World Cup, the 34-year-old has taken 13 wickets in eight matches at an average of 19.07 and an economy rate of 8.85. Overall, Varun Chakaravarthy has picked up 72 wickets in 44 matches at an average of 16.30 and an economy of 7.45.
