Ravindra Jadeja showcased his spinning prowess, illustrating why he holds a high rating in the cricketing world. Taking the field against Australia after the powerplay during the ODI World Cup match in Chennai, the left-arm finger spinner made an immediate impact. Jadeja demonstrated his skill by swiftly dismissing Steven Smith, Marnus Labuschagne, and Alex Carey. Post-match, he emphasized the significance of Smith’s wicket, deeming it the turning point of the game.
Ravindra Jadeja on Smith’s wicket
Reflecting on the match, Jadeja emphasized the importance of Smith’s wicket, deeming it the turning point. He stated, “I think that was the turning moment, you know when you get a wicket like Steve Smith. From there onwards, it was not easy to just come in and rotate the strike for the new batter.”
After India’s triumphant six-wicket win, he continued, “So I would say that wicket was the turning point… and yeah, it helped me, because I knew the conditions in Chennai. I’ve been playing here for like 10-11 years, so I know the conditions on this ground. I enjoyed it and whatever I contribute to the team, I always feel happy.”
