IPL 2020: Architecture To Cricket, Varun Chakravarthy's Career Takes A Good Turn
Kolkata Knight Riders' (KKR) architect-turned-cricketer Varun Chakravarthy on Saturday turned the heat on Delhi Capitals (DC) with figures of five for 20. It would have taken something special to upstage the scintillating batting performance put up by Nitish Rana and Sunil Narine to propel KKR to 194/6 wickets and Chakravarthy ended up doing enough to pip the pair to the Player of the Match award.
"I have been working hard, but the motivation and faith has come from a lot of people around me. Around 2015, when I was not making a lot of money [the switch from being an architect to becoming a cricketer], was freelancing and wasn't able to meet my needs, I thought I would do something different, that's when I turned to cricket. I still do it, I like that as well [being an architect]," Chakravarthy said after the match.
