IND vs Eng: Ravindra Jadeja lacks the ability to win Test matches under foreign circumstances – East -India Opener | Cricket news
Former Indian cricketer Navjot Singh Sidhu has criticized all-rounder Ravindra Jadeja for the inability to win a Test match for India under foreign conditions, despite the recent unbeaten centenary of 107 runs in Jadeja’s Manchester, which helped India secure a draw in the fourth test against England.Jadeja’s innings proved significant in Manchester as he dealt with uneven bouncing on the last day, Washington Sundar provided assistance from the other end. The partnership helped keep the series alive for India.“I have praised Jadeja a lot. Kapil Dev was a bowling all -rounder, and he won a lot of tests for India abroad. But Jadeja has done well in a supporting role away from home. He quickly bowls his overs and performs restrictive bowling, but he is already unable to win a Test match, and it is already a channel.”Jadeja’s criticism intensified after a recent 22 -run defeat at Lord’s in India. Both teams had scored 387 runs after days three, but in the last four days, Prabhu’s pitch became challenging.India managed to bowl England for 192, leading to the target of 193 runs. However, England fast bowlers led by Ben Stokes and Joffra Archer reduced India to 58/4 and later to 112/8.
Jadeja, who remained unbeaten on 61, was the last recognized batsman with India, still needs 81 runs to win. He tried to fight with tail-enders Jasprit Bumrah and Mohammad Sirj.The match ended when spinner Shoaib Bashir dismissed Siraj, hitting the stumps with the overspine of the ball. India eventually decreased by 22 runs.
