Former India Head Coach Ravi Shastri has spoken about an intriguing talk he had with current India all-rounder Ravindra Jadeja, which he credits with entirely changing him.
Ravindra Jadeja has been in great form in the Border-Gavaskar Trophy 2023. Australia is trailing India 2-0 in the four-match Test series. Jadeja was named Man of the Match in both Tests for his significant contributions to India’s victories. He totally destroyed Australia in the second Test by getting a half-century and taking ten wickets.
Indian cricket has celebrated Jadeja’s coming-of-age, but former men’s team coach and ace commentator Ravi Shastri has disclosed a 2019 chat he had with Jadeja.
“He hasn’t looked back since he got the chance” Shastri delighted with the result
The former all-rounder said Bharat Arun and he only had to inspire Ravindra Jadeja to realise his tremendous potential. He believed the 34-year-old would rebound after reflecting on his wasted chances in various tours.
Ravi Shastri further noted that he was glad to see Jadeja acknowledge that conversation and work hard, which helped him become one of the world’s top allrounders.
He stated that this encouraged coaches and team management to view him as a match-winning all-rounder, and since then, he has lived up to every expectation.
“After he had the chance later, he hasn’t looked back, getting runs in important stages and hard conditions and doing his job with the ball. That’s why international coaches struggle to pick spinners. Picking one is a nightmare. Ashwin and Jadeja make it difficult “Shastri declared.
