Ravindra Jadeja praised coach Gautam Gambhir for promoting him to number six, helping him excel as an all-rounder in India’s 2-0 Test series sweep over West Indies.

Jadeja Shines as a Key Performer with Bat and Ball in Series Win

Jadeja Excels in New Batting Against WI

Ravindra Jadeja praised coach Gautam Gambhir for promoting him to number six, helping him excel as an all-rounder in India&rsquo;s 2-0 Test series sweep over West Indies.

Star India all-rounder Ravindra Jadeja on Tuesday said that moving up to number six in the line-up has helped him think "more as a proper batter", crediting head coach Gautam Gambhir for the change that he feels has brought the best out of him.
Jadeja was adjudged player of the series for his all-round performance in the two-Test rubber against the West Indies that India swept with a seven-wicket triumph in the second game in Delhi on Tuesday.
The 36-year-old picked up eight wickets and struck a 104-run knock in the opening game in Ahmedabad.
"I think we know what brand of cricket we've been playing over the last five, six months. So, that's a good sign as a team, that we continue to do it over a long period of time," Jadeja said in the post-match presentation ceremony.
"As Gauti bhai (Gambhir) said, I am at number six now. So I am thinking more as a proper batsman, and that works for me. In the past, for many years, I've been batting at number eight, number nine, so my mindset was a little different from what I have now," he added.
Jadeja said he doesn't think too much about records but is always conscious of performing strongly with both bat and ball to justify his role in the team.
"...we've been doing wonderful work as a team, in terms of batting and bowling. I am just trying to spend more time in the middle whenever I get a chance to bat. To be honest, I don't think too much about records.
"I just focus on contributing with both bat and ball to help my team win. I always look forward to do that. I feel if I don't perform with bat and ball, then it doesn't reflect my value as a player," he said.
Player of the match Kuldeep Yadav, who picked up eight wickets in the game, said bowling long spells was a challenge on an unresponsive track.
"This was a totally different wicket. Bowling a lot of overs was the challenge here, I enjoyed bowling here. There wasn't any drift here. The wicket was too dry. Bowling lot of overs and getting the breakthrough is something I enjoy a lot," he said.&nbsp;

Ravindra Jadeja remains the No. 1 Test all-rounder with 422 points, while Abhishek Sharma rises to the top of the ICC T20 rankings, ending Travis Head’s reign.

Ravindra Jadeja Tops ICC Test Rankings; Abhishek Sharma Leads T20

Ravindra Jadeja & Abhishek Sharma Lead ICC Rankings

Ravindra Jadeja remains the No. 1 Test all-rounder with 422 points, while Abhishek Sharma rises to the top of the ICC T20 rankings, ending Travis Head&rsquo;s reign.

India all-rounder Ravindra Jadeja on Wednesday stretched his lead to consolidate as the world No 1 all-rounder in Test cricket, while Abhishek Sharma rose to the top spot in the T20 format for the first time.
In the latest ICC Men's Test Player Rankings, Jadeja stretched his lead by 117 rating points from the second-placed Mehidy Hasan Miraz of Bangladesh, getting to a total of 422 points.
On the other hand, Travis Head's year-long reign at the top ended after he missed the five-match series in the Caribbean which Australia won 5-0, following which India opener Sharma moved up to the No 1 spot in T20s.
The left-handed Sharma now has 829 rating points while Head is now second with 814 points.
"Jadeja has inflated his lead at the top of the rankings for all-rounders after grabbing four wickets and scoring a fighting 107 not out," the ICC said in statement on its website.
"He has added 13 rating points and is now on an aggregate of 422, 117 rating points clear of Bangladesh's Mehidy Hasan. He has also moved up five places to 29th among batters and up one place to 14th among bowlers," it added.
Washington Sundar also moved up eight places to get to 65th after his maiden Test century and a 203-run defiant stand with Jadeja for the fifth wicket, which ensured a remarkable draw in the fourth Test at Manchester.
"Sundar has also moved up eight positions to joint-13th among all-rounders, having also taken two wickets in the match," the ICC said.
While Joe Root also extended his lead by 37 points as the top ranked batter in Tests from the second placed Kane Williamson, England captain Ben Stokes moved up three places to get to the third spot among all-rounders which is also his highest ranking since December 2022.
Root struck a fine 150 in England's only innings at Manchester while Stokes recorded a five-for and also made a valuable 141.
England bowlers Jofra Archer and Chris Woakes also made gains in the latest rankings. "The Test bowling rankings see fast bowler Jofra Archer continue his impressive return after four years, his haul of three for 73 lifting him 38 places to 63rd position," the ICC said.
"Chris Woakes is up one place to 23rd after finishing with three wickets in the match, which included a double-strike early in the Indian second innings," it added.
England's Ben Duckett moved up five places to get to 10th, Zak Crawley reached 43rd and Ollie Pope got to the 24th, the ICC informed.
The conclusion of the T20I series between Australia and the West Indies saw wicketkeeper-batter Josh Inglis breaking into top 10.
"Josh Inglis's 172 runs in the five-match series, including two half-centuries, has helped him up six places to ninth position, while Tim David (up 12 places to 18th) and Cameron Green (up 64 places to 24th) have attained career-bests," the ICC said.
"For the West Indies, Brandon King is up nine places to joint-21st," it added.

&nbsp;
&nbsp;
<h3>Yashasvi Jaiswal (India)</h3>
Jaiswal&rsquo;s rise in 2024 has been nothing short of sensational. After a tough tour of South Africa, he made an incredible comeback during the home series against England, scoring 712 runs, which included two double centuries and three fifties.
His consistency continued throughout the year, with key performances in the Border-Gavaskar Trophy, where he finished as India&rsquo;s top scorer with 391 runs, including a brilliant 161 in Perth.
By the end of 2024, he had accumulated 1,478 runs at an average of 54.74, including three centuries and nine half-centuries, making him the second-highest run-scorer of the year, behind Joe Root.
<h3>Ben Duckett (England)</h3>
Duckett played a pivotal role in England&rsquo;s Test triumphs this year. After an impressive start with 343 runs in India, including a knock of 153 in Rajkot, Duckett continued his form with centuries in multiple series, including against West Indies, Sri Lanka, and New Zealand. By the end of the year, Duckett had scored 1,149 runs at an average of 37.06, including two centuries and six fifties, finishing as the third-highest run-scorer of 2024.
<h3>Kane Williamson (New Zealand)</h3>
Despite a challenging year due to injuries, Williamson proved why he&rsquo;s one of the best Test batsmen. After an outstanding start with centuries against South Africa and a superb series against England, he finished the year with 1,013 runs at an average of 59.58.
His tally included four centuries and four half-centuries, with his standout performance being a match-winning 156 against England.
<h3>Joe Root (England)</h3>
Joe Root once again dominated Test cricket in 2024. After a slow start against India, Root found his rhythm with some impressive performances, including a monumental 375-run series against Sri Lanka, where he surpassed Alastair Cook's record for most Test centuries by an English player.
He ended the year with 1,556 runs at an average of 55.57, including six centuries and five fifties.
<h3>Harry Brook (England)</h3>
Brook had a stellar 2024, especially in the latter half of the year. After missing the India tour, he returned with a century against the West Indies and then had a sensational partnership with Joe Root in Pakistan, where he scored a triple century.
Brook finished with 1,100 runs at an average of 55, including four centuries and three fifties.
<h3>Kamindu Mendis (Sri Lanka)</h3>
Mendis made a sensational return to Test cricket in 2024, finishing the year as Sri Lanka&rsquo;s top run-scorer. His remarkable performances included two centuries in Bangladesh and a career-best 182* against New Zealand.
Mendis accumulated 1,049 runs at an exceptional average of 74.92, including five centuries and three fifties.
<h3>Jamie Smith (wicketkeeper) (England)</h3>
Smith, in his debut year, made a strong impact. He scored a half-century and a century against Sri Lanka, followed by a gritty 89 against Pakistan.
In total, Smith made 637 runs in 2024 at an average of 42.46, including a century and four fifties, and played a key role behind the stumps with 32 dismissals.
<h3>Ravindra Jadeja (India)</h3>
Jadeja had a superb all-round year in 2024. He was a key figure in India&rsquo;s series wins against England and Bangladesh, contributing with both bat and ball.
He took 48 wickets at an average of 24.29 and scored 527 runs, including a century and three half-centuries, helping India dominate in multiple series.
<h3>Pat Cummins (Australia, captain)</h3>
Pat Cummins led Australia to victory in the Border-Gavaskar Trophy, leading them to a 3-1 win against India.
As captain, he also contributed significantly with both bat and ball, taking 37 wickets at an average of 24.02 and scoring 306 runs.
His leadership helped Australia reclaim the prestigious Border-Gavaskar Trophy after a decade.
<h3>Matt Henry (New Zealand)</h3>
Henry was a standout performer for New Zealand in 2024. His most notable performances came against Australia, where he claimed 17 wickets in the home series, including a memorable eight-wicket haul.
Henry finished the year with 48 wickets at an exceptional average of 18.58, the fourth-highest wicket-taker of the year.
Jasprit Bumrah (India)
Bumrah was the best bowler in Test cricket in 2024, finishing as the highest wicket-taker of the year. He took 71 wickets at an astonishing average of 14.92, including five five-wicket hauls.
His performances against Australia were particularly memorable, where he led India to crucial victories, including a mesmerizing 5/30 in the first Test at Perth and a nine-wicket haul in Melbourne.
<h2>ICC Test Team of the Year 2024:</h2>
Pat Cummins (c) (Australia), Yashasvi Jaiswal (India), Ben Duckett (England), Kane Williamson (New Zealand), Joe Root (England), Harry Brook (England), Kamindu Mendis (Sri Lanka), Jamie Smith (wk) (England), Ravindra Jadeja (India), Matt Henry (New Zealand), Jasprit Bumrah (India).
These 11 players have truly set the benchmark in Test cricket for 2024, showcasing their dominance in both batting and bowling.

Jasprit Bumrah continues as the No. 1 Test bowler, while Ravindra Jadeja holds onto the top position in the all-rounders' category in the latest ICC rankings.

Jasprit Bumrah retains No. 1 spot in ICC Test bowler rankings

Jasprit Bumrah continues as the No. 1 Test bowler, while Ravindra Jadeja holds onto the top position in the all-rounders' category in the latest ICC rankings.

&nbsp; Jasprit Bumrah remains the top-ranked Test bowler, while Ravindra Jadeja holds onto his No. 1 spot in the all-rounders&rsquo; category, according to the latest ICC rankings released on Wednesday.
Bumrah, who achieved a career-high rating of 907 points ahead of the fifth and final Border-Gavaskar Test against Australia in January, has now surpassed that with 908 points. This makes him the highest-ranked Indian bowler ever. Australia&rsquo;s Pat Cummins (841) and South Africa&rsquo;s Kagiso Rabada (837) sit in second and third positions, respectively.
Pakistan's Noman Ali (761) broke into the top-10 after an impressive six-wicket haul in the first Test against West Indies in Multan.
The all-rounders' top-10 list remains unchanged, with Jadeja retaining the top spot with 400 rating points. South Africa&rsquo;s Marco Jansen (294) and Bangladesh&rsquo;s Mehidy Hasan (263) are in second and third place.

The selection of India’s squad for the 2025 Champions Trophy is set to be challenging, with players like KL Rahul, Mohammed Shami, and Ravindra Jadeja facing uncertainty about their places in the team. 

India’s CT 2025 Squad Selection: Key Players Under Scrutiny for Champions Trophy

The selection of India&rsquo;s squad for the 2025 Champions Trophy is set to be challenging, with players like KL Rahul, Mohammed Shami, and Ravindra Jadeja facing uncertainty about their places in the team.&nbsp;

Out-of-form veterans Rohit Sharma and Virat Kohli will continue to form the batting core of India's ODI squad but there are at least three senior players whose future in the 50-over format could be debated when the selectors gather this weekend to pick the squad for the Champions Trophy.
KL Rahul, Mohammed Shami and Ravindra Jadeja's presence in the side is not a surety for the event starting February 19 even though they were a part of last year's World Cup.
Since the final, India have played six ODIs and while Shami and Jadeja were rested, Rahul was included for both the away bilateral engagements against South Africa and Sri Lanka.
Against Sri Lanka, however, he was dropped in the middle of the series after failing to get going in the middle overs. The world is also yet to forget how his sedate half century after using up 100-plus deliveries became a prime reason for India's loss on November 19, 2023 against Australia.
It is understood that Yashasvi Jaiswal has a very bright chance of making it to the ODI squad. His inclusion would ensure a left-handed batter in the top four.
But if Rishabh Pant is the first-choice wicketkeeper, then would there be any point in having Rahul as the back-up? And if Rahul is not keeping, his place as a batter is not guaranteed.
Among his closest competitors, Ishan Kishan hasn't scored enough runs in the Vijay Hazare Trophy while Sanju Samson hasn't been picked by Kerala after he missed the initial games.
If coach Gautam Gambhir still has his say in selection matters like he did till the disastrous Australia tour, then Samson, one of his personal favourites, will surely make the cut.
India will play all their Champions Trophy games in Dubai, starting with the clash against Bangladesh on February 20. This was after the team refused to travel to original hosts Pakistan citing security concerns.
&nbsp;
Jadeja's white-ball woes
Jadeja's white ball batting hasn't been as good as it used to be and those who are tracking the selection committee feel that Axar Patel is being seen as way more effective in the ODIs at the moment.
Washington Sundar is expected to make it as an off-spinner but Kuldeep Yadav's fitness is something that selectors would be fretting on. Kuldeep is near full fitness but hasn't played a Vijay Hazare Trophy game.
In case Kuldeep fails to make it, one among Ravi Bishnoi or Varun Chakravarthy is expected to be picked.
&nbsp;
Shami's fitness
Coming to Mohammed Shami, the veteran pacer's communication with the team management and the selection committee on his fitness status didn't seem to have the required clarity.
However, he has bowled eight overs each in the last two Vijay Hazare Trophy games and in case Jasprit Bumrah fails to make it due to back spasms, Shami's experience will become crucial for the side.
Hardik Pandya is the seam bowling all-rounder and it will be interesting to see if Nitish Reddy will be considered.
Among the reserve specialist batters, the choice could be between Rinku Singh and Tilak Varma.
&nbsp;
Champions Trophy (In Contention):
Rohit Sharma (capt), Shubman Gill, Yashasvi Jaiswal, Virat Kohli, KL Rahul, Rishabh Pant, Hardik Pandya, Axar Patel, Varun Chakravarthy/Ravi Bishnoi, Washington Sundar, Jasprit Bumrah, Mohammed Siraj, Arshdeep Singh, Avesh Khan/Mohammed Shami, Rinku Singh/Tilak Varma.

Jadeja became the third batter in IPL history to be adjudged out for obstructing the field after a miscommunication with Gaikwad during their chase against Rajasthan

CSK batting coach Michael Hussey reacts to controversial Ravindra Jadeja run out | IPL 2024, CSK vs RR

CSK batting coach Michael Hussey on Sunday felt that the decision to give Ravindra Jadeja out for obstructing the field could have gone either way.

<h2>Jadeja became the third batter in IPL history to be adjudged out for obstructing the field after a miscommunication with Gaikwad during their chase against Rajasthan</h2>

Chennai Super Kings batting coach Michael Hussey on Sunday felt that the decision to give Ravindra Jadeja out for obstructing the field could have gone either way.
Jadeja became the third batter in IPL history to be adjudged out for obstructing the field after a miscommunication with skipper Ruturaj Gaikwad during their chase against Rajasthan Royals here.
As Jadeja refused to go for a second run though the all-rounder was halfway down the pitch, the third man hurled the ball to wicketkeeper Sanju Samson, who aimed the ball at the bowler's end.
The throw hit Jadeja, RR appealed, and the third umpire was convinced that Jadeja knew in which direction the ball was heading.
"Didn't look closely at it. He did try to turn around, so he changed his angle a little bit. But he didn't change his angle while running straight," Hussey told reporters during the post-match interaction.
"I can see both sides of the story. I can understand the umpire making the decision. The rule says you cannot change your line, so maybe, it was a fair call."
The contest was low-scoring, in which the hosts prevailed by five wickets to keep their playoff hopes alive.
Commenting on the wicket, Hussey expressed his satisfaction as it allowed an even contest between the two sides.
"Towards the back end of the tournament, the pitches tend to get a bit slower. But I loved the game today -- it was one of those close contests," he stated.
"You needed to show some skills (on this wicket). The way the Rajasthan bowlers bowled, particularly the spinners, summed up the conditions and bowled accordingly." There were a total of 90 dot balls during the tie (45 in each innings).
"Although the pitch was slow, it wasn't unplayable. We're chasing a low total and did not have to take too many risks, which resulted in so many dot balls," he added.
One of the standout CSK performers tonight was pacer Simarjeet Singh, who finished with his best IPL figures of three for 36.
Remarking on his performance, Hussey credited the depth of talent in the team.
"That's the exciting thing for us; we've got some really good talents. He hasn't been able to get the opportunities because we have so many good bowlers up-front.
"So happy for him to get the opportunity, and he has shown how good he is. He has been training hard, and he has been excellent whenever he has got the chance."
When asked about Jadeja's dismissal, RR's Director of Cricket Kumar Sangakkara said that it is how the law works.
"The law says that if a batter changes his direction and gets in the way of the throw, it is considered an obstruction. The rule was changed for the same reason a few years back," he articulated.
"Even if you are (running) in the middle, and if the ball hits your body, it's considered out. Had he (Jadeja) run straight on the side where he stopped, it wouldn't have been a problem at all."

While running towards the non-striker's end, Jaddu changed his line and crossed the pitch as the throw by Sanju Samson hit him.

Ravindra Jadeja found himself in the middle of a controversial run out on Sunday when the Chennai Super Kings all-rounder was given out obstructing the field in IPL 2024 match against the Rajasthan Royals.
The incident happened during CSK's run-chase when Jadeja was sent back by Ruturaj Gaikwad while he attempted to take a run. However, while running towards the non-striker's end, Jaddu changed his line and crossed the pitch as the throw by Sanju Samson hit him.
Rajasthan players appealed and the third umpire stated that Jadeja was clearly ball-watching when Samson was about to throw it and then changed his line while running back.

While Jadeja was seemingly stunned by the decision, he might have unknowingly obstructed the field.
What happened in CSK vs RR match?
&nbsp;
Chennai Super Kings stayed in contention for a place in the IPL play-offs with a five-wicket win over Rajasthan Royals after pacer Simarjeet Singh exemplified the home team's discipline with the ball with career-best figures of 3/26 here on Sunday.
In a low-scoring match which had its share of drama with Ravindra Jadeja being given out for obstructing the field, CSK chased down a target of 142 with 10 balls to spare on a tricky surface.
Skipper Ruturaj Gaikwad was the star for CSK with the bat, remaining unbeaten on a 41-ball 42.
Rachin Ravindra (27 off 18 balls) and Gaikwad managed a 32-run stand before the former was dismissed by Ravichandran Ashwin in the fourth over.
However, that did not have any impact on Gaikwad and Daryl Mitchell (22 off 13 balls) as they maintained a run rate of over nine and ended the powerplay at 56 for one.
Pacer Sandeep Sharma was the most expensive bowler for the visitors during this phase and was hammered for 23 runs.
Mitchell appeared to be the man on a mission, but his stay was cut short by spinner Yuzvendra Chahal, who trapped him leg-before wicket in the eighth over to end a 35-run partnership with Gaikwad.
Moeen Ali (10 off 13 balls) came in next, but he holed out to Nandre Burger in the 12th over.
With the score reading 92 for three in the 13th over, Shivam Dube decided to have a go at Ashwin in his final over.
While Dube hammered Ashwin for a six and two fours in the over, the veteran had the last laugh, which also turned out to be his 50th IPL wicket at this venue.
Also, Jadeja (5 off 6 balls) survived a scare in the subsequent over after Jos Buttler dropped him off Chahal at long-on.
Rookie Sameer Rizvi then hit an eight-ball 15 not out with three fours to end the game in a jiffy after Jadeja became the third batter in IPL history to be adjudged out for obstructing the field after miscommunication with Gaikwad, who refused to go for a second run even as the all-rounder was halfway down the pitch.
The third man hurled it to Sanju Samson, who aimed the ball at the bowler's end but the throw hit Jadeja. RR appealed, and the third umpire was convinced that Jadeja knew in which direction the ball was heading.
CSK needed 21 off the final four overs, and the duo of Gaikwad and Rizvi got the job done.
The win took CSK to the third spot on the points table, while RR suffered their third straight defeat but remained in second position.
Earlier, Simarjeet dished out his best performance in the IPL while helping CSK restrict RR to a modest total.
For the visitors, the in-form Riyan Parag top-scored with a 35-ball unbeaten 47 on a slow wicket.
Opting to bat, the RR openers were off to a cautious start. After RR ended the powerplay at 42 for no loss, the 26-year-old Simarjeet made the first breakthrough in the seventh over, getting rid of Jaiswal (24 runs off 21 balls).
Simarjeet came up with the second breakthrough in the ninth over, with Jos Buttler (21 off 25 balls) departing.
Samson failed to get going, and it was Simarjeet again who grabbed the prized wicket of the RR skipper, ending his 42-run partnership with Parag.
Deshpande, bowling the final over, got rid of Jurel and Shubham Dubey (0 off 1 ball) in consecutive deliveries. Eventually, the visitors didn't get a big enough total on the board.

Ravindra Jadeja was the star of the show for the Chennai Super Kings, scoring a 26-ball 43 and taking 3/20 as the Yellow Army successfully defended a target of 168 against the Punjab Kings.

<h2>Ravindra Jadeja was the star of the show for the Chennai Super Kings, scoring a 26-ball 43 and taking 3/20 as the Yellow Army successfully defended a target of 168 against the Punjab Kings.</h2>

Former Australian captain Aaron Finch has praised Ravindra Jadeja for his versatility and crucial role in bringing balance to any team he represents. This commendation came after Jadeja's impressive performance in a match where Chennai Super Kings secured a victory against Punjab Kings.
During the game, Jadeja contributed significantly by scoring over 40 runs and clinching three wickets, ensuring his team&rsquo;s triumph. Speaking on Star Sports, Finch highlighted Jadeja's dual capabilities in the match. "Ravindra Jadeja is such a versatile player, which makes him so effective. With the ball, he would have loved more wickets," Finch commented. He also noted Jadeja's economical bowling throughout the tournament, emphasizing his efficiency with, "He's been economical, going at under eight per over throughout the tournament. Leading with three wickets today (Sunday), he showed he is an absolute class player."
Finch was particularly impressed by Jadeja's bowling performance, where he achieved figures of 3/20 in his allocated four overs while defending a modest total of 169. "Three wickets for just 20 runs when the Punjab Kings were chasing a total of 170 odd runs is just superb. It just shows why he's one of the best players in the world," Finch remarked, underlining Jadeja&rsquo;s critical role in the match.
Apart from Jadeja, Finch also expressed admiration for Kolkata Knight Riders&rsquo; Sunil Narine. He described Narine's batting as difficult to restrain over a prolonged period. "It's truly remarkable, isn't it? I mean, seeing Sunil Narine stride out to open the batting," Finch observed. He reflected on the evolution of Narine's approach this season, noting, "Before this season, you're thinking, if we can just keep him quiet for a couple of balls, he'll try and do something and play a big shot. But this season, he's not only getting off to explosive starts but also batting smartly and seizing control of the innings."

<h2>Ravindra Jadeja's catch was so unexpected and executed with such finesse that even the batter, KL Rahul, paused in a moment of disbelief.</h2>

In an IPL match that may not have favoured Chennai Super Kings in terms of the final score, Ravindra Jadeja provided a moment of brilliance that cricket fans will likely remember for the rest of the season. Despite the Chennai team's defeat to the Lucknow Super Giants, Jadeja's awe-inspiring catch at backward point was a standout moment, underscoring his reputation as one of the finest fielders in the game today.
The remarkable incident occurred during the 18th over of the match when LSG's KL Rahul looked set to add more runs to his already impressive tally of 82. Rahul powerfully struck a short and wide delivery from Matheesha Pathirana, expecting it to clear the fielder at backward point and race towards the boundary. However, Jadeja, ever alert in the field, had other plans. Demonstrating his athletic prowess and sharp reflexes, he launched himself to his left and miraculously grabbed the ball out of thin air with his left hand.

<h2>Ravindra Jadeja, upon reaching his century after Sarfaraz Khan's run out, offered a subdued celebration, mindful of the role he played in the youngster's dismissal.</h2>

In a heartfelt expression of responsibility, Indian cricketer Ravindra Jadeja addressed the unfortunate run-out of teammate and debutant Sarfaraz Khan, attributing the mishap to a misjudgment on his part during the third Test against England. Jadeja, who notched up his fourth Test century in the match, turned to social media to share his sentiments about the incident that prematurely ended Sarfaraz's promising innings.
On Instagram, Jadeja conveyed his disappointment over the run-out, directly acknowledging his error in calling for a risky single. "Feeling bad for @sarfarazkhan97. It was my wrong call. Well played," he wrote.
Sarfaraz Khan, seizing his eagerly anticipated opportunity to shine on the international stage, had been on the attack against England's bowling lineup. His debut was marked by a swift half-century, achieved in just 48 deliveries, tying the record for the fastest fifty by an Indian player on Test debut. This feat underscored Sarfaraz's potential and the impact he was poised to make before the unfortunate turn of events.
The incident in question occurred as Jadeja, inching closer to his century, gently played a ball from James Anderson towards mid-on and signaled for a single. However, a moment of hesitation from Jadeja left Sarfaraz in a precarious position, ultimately leading to his run-out by England's Mark Wood for 62 runs. The direct hit at the non-striker's end abruptly ended what could have been an even more memorable innings for Sarfaraz.
Jadeja, reaching his century immediately after Sarfaraz's dismissal, offered a restrained celebration, a clear indication of the mixed emotions he felt due to his involvement in the run-out.

During the pre-match press conference, the all-rounder was asked about Ravichandran Ashwin just 1 wicket away from completing 500 wickets in Tests.

<h2>In the controversial interview, Jadeja's father lamented the lack of communication and relationship with his son and daughter-in-law, stating they had lived separately and barely interacted with him since shortly after their marriage.</h2>

Indian cricket team's celebrated all-rounder, Ravindra Jadeja, recently found himself in the midst of a family controversy, compelling him to address allegations made public by his father. The cricketer's father, Anirudhsinh Jadeja, had accused him and his wife, Rivaba, of estrangement, a claim that rapidly gained traction on social media platforms.
Rivaba, who is also a BJP MLA, chose not to elaborate on her father-in-law's comments when she was asked about it during an event, urging the media to approach her directly for such inquiries. &nbsp;"Why are we here today? You can contact me directly if you want to know about it," she stated, as reported by Zee 24 Kalak, redirecting the focus back to the event's purpose.
Ravindra Jadeja earlier took a firmer stand by denouncing the interview his father had with Divya Bhaskar as "meaningless and false." Through a social media post, Jadeja criticized the attempt to defame his wife and labeled the accusations as one-sided. "The attempt to tarnish the image of my wife is improper and condemnable. I too, have a lot to say but I shouldn't reveal those things in public," Jadeja expressed, choosing to maintain the dignity of their private matters.
In the controversial interview, Jadeja's father lamented the lack of communication and relationship with his son and daughter-in-law, stating they had lived separately and barely interacted with him since shortly after their marriage. He even expressed regret over pushing Ravindra towards cricket, believing it might have altered their familial dynamics.
The father's narrative painted a picture of a family divided, blaming Rivaba for creating discord within the family. He claimed, without mincing words, that the rift began almost immediately after the marriage, accusing Rivaba of seeking control over family matters and desiring an independent life away from the family unit.
The dispute has evidently led to a deep emotional chasm, with Jadeja's father disclosing the pain of not seeing his granddaughter for years and alleging that Rivaba's family has overly interfered in their lives. Despite these painful revelations, Ravindra Jadeja's public response calls for restraint and privacy, highlighting the complexities of family dynamics and the challenges faced by public figures in maintaining personal boundaries.

I have no relation whatsoever with Ravi (Ravindra Singh Jadeja) or his wife (Rivaba Jadeja). We don't meet them and they don't meet us.'&nbsp; The report alleged that a dispute arose within the family just a few months into his son's marriage to the now BJP MLA.&nbsp; As per the report, the father stays separately in a flat in Jamnagar while Jadeja stays in a bungalow in the same city.&nbsp; 'I don't know what magic his wife has done. It would've been better if we never made him a cricketer,' the news organisation said quoting Aniruddhsinh.&nbsp; The report went on to state that Jadeja senior has not seen his granddaughter in nearly five years. The cricketer and his wife welcomed their daughter in 2017.&nbsp;

Reacting to the news, Jadeja quashed all claims made by his father and urged the public to not believe scripted interviews. He added that he too has a lot to say but he won't do it publicly.&nbsp;

According to reports, the all-rounder might miss the 2nd Test in Visakhapatnam due to the hamstring issue. He was caught well short of the crease by Ben Stokes’ direct hit.

Ravindra Jadeja doubtful for India vs England 2nd Test after suffering hamstring injury

Team India had an injury scare during the 1st Test vs England as Ravindra Jadeja walked back clutching his hamstring. Reportedly, he might miss the 2nd Test. Here is what Rahul Dravid said.

According to reports, the all-rounder might miss the 2nd Test in Visakhapatnam due to the hamstring issue. He was caught well short of the crease by Ben Stokes&rsquo; direct hit.
India head coach Rahul Dravid did not reveal too much about Jadeja's injury but said that they will keep a check on the all-rounder as the 2nd Test is set to start on February 2.
&ldquo;We'll see. I honestly haven't had a chance to speak to the physio as yet. Once I get back, I'll speak to him and see what it is about,&rdquo; he said.
India might have lost the 1st test in Hyderabad but Jadeja stood out with both bat and the ball. Apart from a gritty 87 in the 1st innings, he took 3 and 2 wickets in the two innings respectively.

According to onlookers at Supersport Park, Jadeja appeared comfortable and pain-free during his involvement in the warm-up session on day 3. 

Ravindra Jadeja likely to return for India in 2nd Test against South Africa

<h2>According to onlookers at Supersport Park, Jadeja appeared comfortable and pain-free during his involvement in the warm-up session on day 3.&nbsp;</h2>

In a welcome turn of events for the Indian cricket team, amidst the aftermath of a crushing defeat, senior all-rounder Ravindra Jadeja is poised to make a comeback for the second Test against South Africa. The match is scheduled to commence on January 3 in Cape Town.
Jadeja was absent from the opening Test after experiencing an "upper back spasm" on the morning of the first day at the Supersport Park. Despite this setback, there were positive signs on the third day of the first Test, as Jadeja was spotted participating in the pre-game warm-up session.
Observers noted that Jadeja appeared comfortable and pain-free during his involvement in the session. He engaged in several short sprints, ranging from 30 to 40 meters, and also participated in various fitness exercises.
A particularly encouraging observation was Jadeja&rsquo;s involvement in bowling practice during the lunch break of the third day. Alongside reserve pacer Mukesh Kumar, Jadeja spent roughly 20 minutes bowling on a practice pitch under the watchful eye of Rajnikant, the team's strength and conditioning coach. Despite using only a two-step run-up, he consistently hit his marks and even managed to get some turn on a few deliveries.
Importantly, Jadeja showed no signs of discomfort throughout his bowling session, displaying fluidity in his movements.
Jadeja&rsquo;s absence was keenly felt by the Indian team in their innings and 32-run defeat in the first Test. While Ravichandran Ashwin bowled 19 overs and took 1 for 40, he struggled to pose a significant threat to the South African batsmen. Jadeja's contributions, both as a bowler and as a lower-middle-order batter, have been impactful in the past, particularly in SENA countries, and his presence could have potentially altered the course of the match.
With four days remaining before the second Test, there is a strong likelihood that Jadeja will be fit to play, providing a much-needed boost to the Indian side.

The victory against South Africa means India is assured of topping the group after winning all 8 of their matches to date

Ravindra Jadeja reflected on Virat Kohli's achievements on Sunday, calling his latest milestone "special" after the cricket icon celebrated his birthday with a record-equalling century as the World Cup hosts thrashed South Africa by 243 wins.
'I would say this is special for him as well as tough because the way the wicket was in the afternoon, at one time it felt like 260-270 is also fine and at that time, rotating the strike and taking boundaries I think that must have been very challenging. So, especially I would say that when the team was not getting a run, both their spinners were bowling well, and at such a time to rotate the strike, to take boundaries, and to get a score of above 300 and be not out - that is a very big achievement and a very big effort for him,' said Jaddu.
Kohli smashed an unbeaten 101 from 121 balls, to record his 49th century in ODIs, matching the mark set by compatriot Sachin Tendulkar.
The 35-year-old's innings helped the hosts post a total of 326/5 and South Africa was then skittled out for just 83 runs at Eden Gardens in Kolkata.
The victory means India are assured of topping the group after winning all 8 of their matches to date. Only West Indies and Australia have managed to become unbeaten champions in an ODI World Cup till now and Jadeja was also asked if India can become the third team to do so.
'We don't think much about what will happen in a match, we plan match by match. The upcoming knockout stage will be very important. The way the teams momentum is right now, with batting, bowling, in every department, we are clicking as a team. So, we will continue and try to make it the same in the semi-final and final,' he said.

Talking about his bowling, Jadeja admitted that Steve Smith's dismissal was the turning point in the Australia innings.

After India beat Australia in its ODI World Cup 2023 opening match on Sunday, Ravindra Jadeja admitted that there was a little panic in the Indian dressing room after the team lost 3 wickets with just 2 runs on the board.
'Obviously when you are three wickets down in just a couple of overs, you panic a little bit, but we knew that Virat (Kohli) and (KL) Rahul, they have been doing this for the team in so many years. So I think nobody was too much hyper or panic at the time. But yeah, luckily they played brilliantly. They know the conditions well and they took the game forward until the last. So I think that was amazing to see,' said Jaddu in the post-match press conference.
Jadeja was the pick of the Indian bowlers with 3/28 from his 10 overs.
Talking about his bowling, the all-rounder admitted that Steve Smith's dismissal was the turning point in the Australia innings.
'I think that was the turning moment. You know, when you get the wicket like (of) Steve Smith from there onwards, their new batters, it was not easy to just come in and rotate the strike for the new batter. So, I think that I would say that wicket was the turning point. From there onwards, they were 119 for three and from 199 all out. So I think yeah, I would say that was the turning point and it helped me because I knew the conditions in Chennai. I've been playing here since like 10, 11 years, so I know the conditions at this ground. I enjoyed and whatever I contribute to the team, I always feel happy.'
Virat Kohli and KL Rahul staged a superb recovery from 2 for 3 in India's reply to Australia's below-par 199 all out to secure a six-wicket win for the host nation in their opening match at the Cricket World Cup.
Kohli hit 85 off 116 balls and delivered a calmly constructed fourth-wicket stand of 165 with player of the match Rahul (97 not out) as India reached 201-4 with 52 balls to spare in front of a passionate home crowd at the MA Chidambaram Stadium.
Australia had taken three wickets in the first two overs to leave India in a perilous position before Kohli and Rahul came
