‘We Don’t Communicate’: Varun Chakravarthy on Bowling Partnership With Sunil Narine Ahead of MI vs KKR IPL 2025 Clash

The spin twins have been lethal whenever they have worked in tandem.

Kolkata Knight Riders (KKR) spinner Varun Chakravarthy recently opened up about his partnership with fellow spinner Sunil Narine ahead of the Mumbai Indians (MI) fixture in the Indian Premier League (IPL) 2025.

The spin twins have been lethal whenever they have worked in tandem, and Chakravarthy emphasised their on-field understanding. Last season, during KKR’s title-winning campaign, the pair picked up a total of 38 wickets between them with Varun snaring 21 while Narine got 17.

Speaking to Jio Hotstar, Chakravarthy said about his partnership with Narine, “Now that I’ve played five years alongside him — this is my sixth year — we don’t need to communicate as much anymore. He doesn’t have to spoon-feed me. Whatever I can learn, I just observe what he is doing.”

Chakravarthy and Sunil Narine, one of the tournament’s strongest bowling duos, have developed a strong understanding over the years. The India star also acknowledged Narine’s impact on his growth at KKR.

He also went on to name the batters he would like to dismiss in IPL 2025.

Varun added, “Definitely any batsman who is in great form. Players like Heinrich Klaasen, Nicholas Pooran, Virat Kohli, Rohit Sharma, and Suryakumar Yadav—these guys are all the star players. I would be very happy if I could pick their wickets.”
