Varun Chakravarthy Bowls Glenn Maxwell Again as India Take 2–1 Lead With 48-Run Win

Srikkanth’s taunt spotlighted Chakravarthy’s five dismissals of Maxwell in T20 meetings.

Overview

  • The Maxwell wicket arrived in the 15th over at Carrara Oval and effectively sealed India’s 48-run victory for a 2–1 series advantage.
  • In his first game back from injury, Maxwell was bowled attempting to make room for a big shot at a Chakravarthy googly.
  • Across T20 encounters, Maxwell has faced 33 balls from Chakravarthy for 50 runs at a strike rate over 150 but has been dismissed five times for an average near 10.
  • Chakravarthy has five wickets in the series to date, with only Australia’s Nathan Ellis returning better figures across both teams.
  • Krishnamachari Srikkanth mocked Maxwell’s struggles and pressed India to keep Suryakumar Yadav at No. 3 while giving Washington Sundar steadier bowling opportunities.
