Change seems to be inevitable, because mysterious Spinner Varun Chakravarthy has joined the India team for the ODI series opener against England. Chakravarthy, who was the choice of the bowlers for India in the 5-match T20i series against England, is supported by many to break into the team's ODI team. However, he was not mentioned in the India team for the ODI assignment. Nevertheless, it is noted with the boys in Nagpur, where the first one -day international will be held on Thursday.
Rumors that Chakravarthy was added to India's team for the Champions trophy was widespread for a while, but the Board of Control for Cricket in India (BCCI) selection committee, led by Ajit Agarkar, decided to leave him out of the selection event. The Kolkata Knight Riders spinner was also not picked for the ODI series against England.
The management, however, saw him seeing a big hint in a dramatic change in plans with the Indian team in Nagpur.
Chakravarthy was the player of the series against England and had won no fewer than 14 wickets in 5 games. However, the Mystery Spinner has not yet made his ODI debut.

Chakravarthy is also supported for Champions Trophy selection by Ravichandran Ashwin. In a video on his YouTube channel, Ashwin said that he feels that the KKR star would be fleeing Dubai for the Champions Trophy, which starts on February 19.
The BCCI has only announced the provisional India team for the Champions trophy, of which Chakravarthy is not part. However, the grid can be applied to the grid until 11 February. If Chakravarthy needs to be cut, he should impress the selectors in the ODI series against England. But if he were chosen for the opener or not, it is not yet known.
