India spinner Varun Chakravarthy has been added to the ODI squad for the three-match series against England following his outstanding performances in the T20Is.
The mystery spinner, who is uncapped in ODIs, joined the national team’s training camp in Nagpur on Tuesday ahead of the first ODI, scheduled to be played on Thursday.
For the unversed, Chakravarthy bagged the Player of the Series award in the five-match T20I series against England, after claiming 14 wickets at an average of 9.86 with an economy of 7.66.
