Some fans had criticised Rohit Sharma's decision to declare India's 1st innings of the Mohali Test vs Sri Lanka when Ravindra Jadeja was looking good for a double hundred. But India's new Test captain revealed that it was Jadeja who asked him to declare.

After the emphatic victory, the Hitman said that it was Jadeja's decision to put Sri Lanka in, which shows how selfless he is.
