Former India batter Wasim Jaffer has raised concerns over the form of Indian spinner Varun Chakaravarthy. He will next play when India take on Afghanistan in a three-match T20I series, starting September 13 in Delhi.

During a discussion on his YouTube channel (Wasim Jaffer Official), he said: “Varun Chakaravarthy should hopefully do well because, recently, there have been some difficulties for him. It seems that teams have figured him out a little. The batsmen have figured out how he bowls. Most of his deliveries come into the batsman, and the ball doesn’t go away. When the ball lands in the batsman’s hitting zone, they don’t hesitate to play their shots. They understand that Varun generally looks for the bat-pad gap. So, this will be a very important series for him.”

However, the veteran also added that the batters no longer hesitate to play their shots against him when the ball lands in the hitting zone as well.

“Afghanistan are dangerous in this format. So, overall, I feel India should dominate, but don’t be surprised if Afghanistan beat India in one match and pose a challenge. I don’t think we should take them lightly. I feel this will be a slightly challenging series. India should win the series, otherwise, it would obviously be a very poor performance,” he concluded.
