A team’s ability to have a true all-around player as Ravindra Jadeja invaluable. Team India routed England by 434 runs in the third Test at the Niranjan Shah Stadium here on Sunday, taking a 2-1 lead in the series. Ravindra Jadeja once again demonstrated this with his contributions with the bat and left-arm spin.
Rising star of Indian cricket team
“The most underappreciated player in Indian cricket, this reputable spin all-rounder has won matches in all formats. Jadeja is eligible for induction into any Hall of Fame due to his astounding stats. His bowling statistics are superior to those of Bishan Singh Bedi, Erapalli Prasanna, S Venkataraghavan, BS Chandrasekhar, and Ian Botham Compared to Bishan Singh Bedi, Erapalli Prasanna, S Venkataraghavan, BS Chandrasekhar, and Ian Botham, his bowling statistics are better. He has a higher Test batting average than Ian Botham, Andrew Flintoff, Shaun Pollock, and Kapil Dev combined. Nobody in Indian cricket has demonstrated the desire to stop, catch, and throw the ball for as long as this when fielding.
Ravindra’s hometown
Ranji’s hometown of Jamnagar, where a statue of cricket legend Vinoo Mankad still stands in the town square, is where Jadeja got his start. He is a traditional cricketer who constantly modifies his style to fit the format he plays. But the all-rounder’s journey in white-ball cricket didn’t get off to a great start. He made a 35-ball 25 at the 2009 World T20 in England, a game that proved to be crucial in eliminating India from contention. Even though his detractors would relentlessly harass and categorically write him off, Jadeja recovered at the 2013 Champions Trophy, winning the Golden Ball and being named Man of the Match in the championship game.
Had Dhoni reached the crease and averted a run-out that night, Jadeja would become a part of Indian World Cup legend. With Dhoni organizing and Jadeja carrying out the plan, it appeared that the teacher and the ward were in charge of the heist. In 50 overs, they chased 240 and took India from 92/6 to 208/6. Then, as is often the case with many brave gestures in a losing cause, Dhoni was discovered to be short of his crease and Jadeja’s 59-ball 77 featuring four sixes was forgotten.
Sarfaraz Khan’s death left Ravindra Jadeja in misery
When Sarfaraz countered with a single, Jadeja denied the quick run, allowing mid-on fielder Mark Wood to smash a direct hit to end the entertaining knock for the rookie. On Day 1, Jadeja guided India to a respectable total. On Instagram, she showed her condolences for Sarfaraz. In addition, the seasoned all-rounder accepted full responsibility for the out. “I’m sorry for Sarfaraz Khan97; I made the wrong call.” Excellent work,” Jadeja wrote on her Instagram Stories.
On his performance with the bat, Jadeja said:”On this pitch, you won’t get easy wickets,” Jadeja said in reference to his batting performance. They require a lot of work from you. At the presentation, Jadeja, who was named Man of the Match for his 112 and match statistics of 7/92, stated, “You have to earn your wickets and land the balls in good areas.”
“I always try to play my shots, support my strengths, and avoid trying to be overly conscious. I make an effort to both play and observe the ball.”
