#4 Varun Chakravarthy
Varun Chakravarthy, a mystery spinner from Tamil Nadu, who started all the way from playing the fourth-grade team and eventually reached the domestic side of Tamil Nadu. The 27-year-old helped Madurai panthers win the Tamil Nadu Premier League this year. He is one of the players who set the auction on fire as he bagged a whopping INR 8.4 crores.
Chakravarthy had a great TNPL season last year and bowled at an economy of less than 5. He continued with his form in the Syed Mushtaq Ali Trophy as well where he emerged as the second highest wicket-taker. Varun will play a critical role for Kings XI Punjab accompanying Ravichandran Ashwin & Mujeeb ur Rahman during the middle overs.
