Ravindra Jadeja - Second fastest to get 300 wickets and 3000 runs in Test cricket

[Darkrai]

So your logic is Root grew up in swinging pitches.. so we should not take his runs seriously on those pitches because he averages 35 in Aus on pacy wickets.

Where did i say we shouldn't take Jadeja's runs seriously?

A good player but time for him to retire now. He should retire on a high note in his career.

Took 10 wickets in the match.

Am surprised to see guys like Warne and Broad having made 3000 test runs....
did'nt think they would have made as much....

 

[Saurav]

Because he probably plays spin better than most SENA players since he grew up on those pitches?

That goes for every player then.

and he has good stats in Aus too and a ton in England

Nah not really, you can't teach lack of intelligence... Afridi had no brain, so he wouldn't have achieved anything meaningful or given as much chances like he got in Pakistan, he wouldve been dropped after a few test matches in India for good.

Talent only gets you so far...

Jadeja is no Elon Musk either. He is a huge beneficiary of Indian pitches. There is no difference between him and players like Washington & Axar. Same goes for Santner.

I really rate Riggedeja. Yeah he has benefited from rigged pitches but he still contributes a decent amount across all formats and in all facets.

Most teams would kill to have him and he may be better than Pitchwin from an Indian perspective.

 

[RidiculousMan]

He can only win you matches when oppositions don't have good spinners. When they have the likes of Ajaz Patel then even Jadeja's wickets can't get you wins. lol
