Ravindra Jadeja’s Old Statement Goes Viral After He Puts An Incredible All-Round Show In Mohali

Team India handed a massive defeat to Sri Lanka in Mohali. Led by Rohit Sharma, India won the game by an innings and 222 runs. The main reason for India’s win was the extraordinary performance by all-rounder Ravindra Jadeja. An old video and the statement made by Jadeja in that clip has gone viral on social media. In this article, we take a look at Ravindra Jadeja’s old statement that has now gone viral after his performance in Mohali Test.

A brilliant display by the Indian all-rounder

Ravindra Jadeja has been one of the better Indian batters in Tests in recent years. However, against Sri Lanka, the Saurashtra player was in an altogether different level of form. He struck 175 runs and this came from just 227 balls. He was unbeaten before India declared the innings.

The emergence of Axar Patel might have sidelined the importance of Jadeja with the ball. However, the player was terrific in this department, as well. While he took five wickets in the first innings, he collected four scalps in the second. Thus he showed that his form with the ball had not drifted. This performance by Jadeja will help India going forward in this WTC cycle.

Ravindra Jadeja’s old statement now goes viral

Meanwhile, a few years ago, Jadeja had made a statement that has now gone viral. In that interview with ESPN Cricinfo, when asked about a record that he wanted to achieve, Jaddu said that he wanted to score a hundred and pick five wickets in the same innings of a Test match. Cut to a few years later, Jaddu has done exactly that in the Mohali Test against Sri Lanka.

The value of Jadeja is immense in the Indian XI. He adds terrific balance to the playing XI and is one of the main reasons why India has been doing well in Tests. The player and Team India will next take on Sri Lanka from March 12th in Bengaluru.
