Ravindra Jadeja’s Heroics at Mohali Test Match makes him Greatest All-rounder of all Time
- Jadeja’s Brilliant Show
The Dashing All-rounder scored an unbeaten 175 runs and took 9 wickets in the Match against Sri Lanka. The uniqueness of his batting was that he played according to the situation rather than going bang-bang. He also became the go to bowler for the Captain Rohit Sharma. His crafty left arm off spin bowling was a treat to watch as he foxed Sri Lanka’s batters with sheer brilliance. The way he batted everyone reminded a threatening lower batsman just like the Legendary Adam Gilchrist. The ‘Rockstar’ often said by the late King of Spin Shane Warne would rue the fact that he missed out on double century, later when asked about getting to the milestone the batter said that he wanted to give the team a chance to have a go at Sri Lanka’s batsmen before the end of Day’s play.

- Jadeja joins the Iconic Vinoo Mankad in a Rare Achievement
Indians with 150+ and 5 wkt haul in the same Test…
Vinoo Mankad 184 & 5/196 at Lord’s 1952
Polly Umrigar 172* & 5/107 at POS 1962
Ravindra Jadeja 175* & 5/41 at Mohali 2022#IndvSL #IndvsSL— Mohandas Menon (@mohanstatsman) March 6, 2022
The Eclectic all-rounder joined the Late Batsman in an unbelievable achievement. The all-rounder would hope that he continues his good work. Earlier in an interview to a leading portal, he had told that his dream would be to get a 5 wicket-haul and score a century that too in the same innings of the Test Match. He still knows that he has a lot to accomplish as the major task for him would be to succeed when the Mighty Aussies tour India in September-October 2022. Border-Gavaskar Trophy 2022 is a long way ahead, but India doesn’t have any promising opponents before that Series. All in all, Coach Rahul Dravid & Captain Rohit Sharma would hope that the Flamboyant Star Cricketer continues to break the back of the opponents by performing exceptionally well just like recent times.
