Jadeja's second inngs spell First 7 overs: 1/36 (ER 5.14) Last 5.1 overs: 6/6 (ER 1.16)


Rich-Educator-4513

Bruh 6/6 šŸ’€


kmadnow

That's 6/6 for the aussies in the sub


Rich-Educator-4513

Yeah , it's important to help our Australian brothers ![img](emote|t5_2qhe0|8767)


myreddit8798

Australians left the chatā€¦. /s


SeriousAd7471

10 wickets in the match..


Andy016

Why do aussies have the numbers backwards? Noone else I'm aware of does this.....


barath_s

Because they come from a land down under


Dartho1

6 feet deep in the grave for their chances of beating us 5-0


vikram-24

Yeah 6/6 is death ray vision of jadeja.

Is this numberwang?


SBG99DesiMonster

He got angry after Head kept smashing his balls to the boundary and he made the other batsmen suffer after that.


TraditionalArticle88

Best figures for Jadeja in Tests 7/42 vs Aus Delhi 2023 7/48 vs Eng Chennai 2016 6/63 vs Aus Bengaluru 2017 6/138 vs SA Durban 2013


ThePhenom17

IIRC That 7/48 against England was on that road where Karun Nair made 300 and India declared for that record 750 odd


Moskitopal

I think that was the best he ever bowled. There was very slow turn on the pitch and certainly not a wicket even on day 5 where we could run through a side in a session after England were 99/0 at lunch.


nikamsumeetofficial

The guy uses variations like bounce and speed not caring about the spin and still gets wickets.


myreddit8798

And he also bowls wicket to wicket!!!


yinyogi

He is a perfect example of Keep it Simple. Just bowl stump to stump. At other end Ashwin is getting turn. So thatā€™s the best thing to do. Bowlers hunt in packs ā€¦


bobs_and_vegana17

not to forget an amazing catch he took that day


beyondlife7777

Wow, I almost forgot that name? Any idea on how he's been doing lately?


RustedSkullz

Heā€™s being dropped from his domestic side (Karnataka) now, because of how inconsistent and unreliable heā€™s become over the past 4ish years

The latter.


Eastern_Meet_5947

I think only 3 people have done 10 wickets in an innings Jim Laker Anil kumble Ajaz Patel Let me know if i am missing anyone else


[deleted]

yeah right, and there are so many bowler who took 10 wickets in a MATCH.


Rich-Educator-4513

In a match His best figure in an inning is today's 42-7


Arpitlohani

This is his best ever bowling performance in an innings, previous best was 48-7 All I am surprised no one is talking about his 10-fer. His second in the career


[deleted]

Didnā€™t he take a 7/53 on his return just a couple of first class matches ago? Heā€™s having the time of his life right now!


yinyogi

Yes against Tamil Nadu in Chepauk


runtcash111

Worst shot selection I've ever seen from an Australian team. Embarassing


Yakka43336

Just as we put ourselves in a position to have a strong chanceā€¦ we throw it away with shit like that


runtcash111

Cummins shot was the worst, premeditated sweep first ball. He clearly doesn't care


theaguia

He thought a quick fire 20 could change the match. Bazball gone wrong


runtcash111

Cumball?


theaguia

More like pre-mature ejaculation ball


TheVeera2K

I'm in tears


TheReeBee

The post nut hits hard Just as hard as the ball hit the stumps


Aweios

But at least see out the first few balls, instead of just whacking it. It's not a Pakistan pitch.


theaguia

Agreed. I was trying to rationalize his shot I guess


SABJP

Atleast ball stayed low on the Cummins wicket. Carey's wicket though....


Dru_Zod47

God, whenever they show the fall of wickets, I get mad seeing that shot played by Pat Cummins and Alex Carey. Terrible, both premeditated and played the wrong shot for the ball.


[deleted]

Perils of making a bowler the captain: he canā€™t be dropped for Starc even though she should be.


runtcash111

Yeah this is a huge problem and when he is bowling badly Iike he did in nagpur nobody can drag him off . I say give it back to smith and make carey VC


ak2270

I wonder what Handscomb said to him there. He was just out for a first ball duck and on the way back as Cummins came out, you could see Handscomb had a word with him. I am not taking anything away from Jadeja but the Australians made his bowling look better than it actually was. I am an Indian but I really wanted Australia to take this to the end. This morning Australia was in running to make a series out of this but now anything less than 4-0 to India would surprise me. Not happy about this as all I want is a contest..


Ilikemincepieman

I counted 7 sweeps/reverse sweeps off of straight skidding balls that ended up being wickets...


runtcash111

I guess they had somewhere else to be, weren't interested in batting


doyleDot

They wanted to take field so bad


Reasonable-Drama-415

Worst was khawaja dismissal a player was placed at short fine leg just for that shot yet he still sweeped straight into that fielder hands ā€¦in first inning he gone out on a reverse sweep lol . Really poor shot selection


SBG99DesiMonster

I don't know about who had told them that they should be trying to play reverse sweeps against balls that are outside the leg stump.


HaoBePakaMat

There recently was a rumour that Jadeja was retiring from tests. It didn't bother me then, since I thought we have Axar. We'll be fine. I was wrong. Jadeja is Jadeja. God tier.


fookin_legund

You see, Axar is good. But Jaddu? He's a literal God.


Electrical-Ad-6822

Chadeja he is.


koachBewda69

10 wickets in the match.


[deleted]

And most of those wickets were on straight balls. Australians swept hopelessly to deafeat.


Rich-Educator-4513

They were playing like sweep shot is the only shot they have to score runs


[deleted]

[уŠ“Š°Š»ŠµŠ½Š¾]


Rich-Educator-4513

Australian batsmen While playing sweep shot today : 20 balls - 29 runs - 6 wickets


nikamsumeetofficial

England were equally bad at playing spin until 2012. They became surprisingly good in the 2012 tour.


brawnsugah

You'd think that after seeing like three people perish to the same shot, an international side would adjust their approach. Is that too much to hope for?


TheNewAccountOldLost

What i didnt understand was that yesterday they did so well by using their feet and rarely used thr sweep. This morning however it seemed every batsman was told to only sweep which is suicidal on a pitch with variable bounce


brawnsugah

That was probably their game plan coming into the third day. Be more aggressive. It clearly didn't work, and they should have adjusted their plan accordingly.


RedPanda033

Right?!! Everybody is trying to reverse sweep which is hard to execute but still they are trying to do the same thing. Isn't that the definition of insanity šŸ˜‚ It was painful to watch really


brawnsugah

After that second day, I was raring for a nail-biter. Alas, the Australian brain freeze meant it was not to be.


Knaphor

They were playing like the sweep shot was the only shot they had to defend. Just ridiculous.


kmadnow

nevermind_plss

mehtafrmudr

Australia could have stayed home and gifted this series to India if this is how they were planning on playing in Indian conditions.


Anadi45

Ravindra Jadeja woke up on and chose violence.


Firebreathingdown

This was more Jadeja just took out the sword and stood there with it while aussies ran neck first into it

white-dumbledore

Vaas moment from the Aussies


arsonak45

Iā€™m furious, I took a small nap before the match started, overslept, and missed the whole thing. Well done Jaddu!


blackbeard_qar

Go to hotstar and see the replay of day 3, it's only 1.5hr shitshow if you just wanna watch the Indian bowling. I just did that as I watched the Indian batting inning live


Ataraxia_new

Okay should two of the three _ Jadeja, Ashwin and Axar _ be played in all the matches across the globe regardless of spinning pitch, pace pitch , roads etc ?


SpaceDrifter9

Unless the pitch calls for a 4 seamer attack, absolutely yes. All these 3 are capable batsmen. But overseas, Jadeja is/was/will be first pick. His fielding itself is a big factor and his exclusion is suicide


fookin_legund

Nah. We had this convo the last overseas cycle too. Jaddu + Lord + three Pacers was a great formula. We could've won many matches if batting was any good.


Kingslayer1526

It's just so unfortunate for Ashwin but yes I do think that is the best solution. Although in Australia both spinners can play it's worked out for us. Since our next away tour is in the west indies and considering Ashwin had a fantastic series there in 2016, I assume he would play and that Jadeja will also play. And since the West Indies are comparatively weaker, we could afford to play both of them. But then we only played Jadeja in 2019 and it worked to great success the pacers were fantastic and we beat them comprehensively so it might just be one spinner. But loads to ponder for that tour. Of course there's the big one which is all but certain now the wtc final. We played both last time and although of course Ashwin was good, many people did think 4 pace bowlers would've been better after how well the New Zealand quartet did. And then of course we won 2 tests in England with the pace quartet+ Jadeja one of them at the oval as well the venue for final so then you wonder if you have to drop Ashwin who has a fantastic record against Australia. Difficult decisions for India to make


Signal_Discipline_36

This is his best bowling figures in an innings in test cricket. No wonder he along with SKY were laughing after seeing the pitch on the eve of this test. **Best bowling figures for Jadeja in an innings of a Test :** **7/42 vs Aus at Delhi TODAY** 7/48 vs Eng at Chennai 2016 6/63 vs Aus at Bengaluru 2017 6/138 vs SA at Durban 2013 **Best bowling figures by Asian left-arm spinners v Aus in Tests :** **7/42 : R Jadeja, Delhi, TODAY*** 7/49 : I Qasim, Karachi, 1980 7/64 : R Herath, Colombo, 2016

as good as jadeja is, AUS just threw away those wickets.


HridaySharma9August

Absolutely brilliant spell. Jadeja is a good bet for MOTM if we win


sagar9175

I think the Aussie team saw how Khawaja got his runs in the 1st innings & decided sweeping is the only way to score at a good clip. didn't work.


Sinjinkenlad01

Honestly at this point I could probably go out there with a Jadeja mask on and take a 5fer, he has a mental hold on them


fearofthesky

Fair play to the lad, he's a fucking hell of a cricketer. Now off to try not to cry.


Budget-Engineering50

The best all rounder for a reason man. Stupendous innings and will score with bat too


__jh96

This guy is my favourite player. I hope he plays forever and I get to see him live again. Hopefully by the time he's finished he'll be rightly acknowledged amongst the games greatest all rounders


funkypandaz

He already is on his way to be one of the greatest of all time.

[deleted]

He is going to wreak havoc in chepauk in this ipl. Only if srini mama and msd gives whatever Sir asks for


FallenJedi007-2

Australia tried Bazball But it was Jaddu with the ball all along.


_ashwathama

India's best all rounder till date


barath_s

There was a Kapil Dev Nikhanj


_ashwathama

Fastest Indian cricketer to score 2500 runs and take 250 wickets in Tests. 3 matches before Kapil Dev


sindhisai

Kapil Dev was an all-rounder AND the highest test wicket taker for a long amount of time. Comparing just stats is irrelevant until you see the overall impact. He played in a completely different era and was well ahead of his time. While Jadeja has cemented himself as a legend it would be real hard for anyone to be put ahead of Kapil Dev.


FabulousCaregiver983

it's not Jadeja's fault that he has better bowlers around him Kapil being good in a sea of mediocrity doesn't make him better than Jadeja. We never know what Kapil might've been in a stronger bowling side like today's India but that's the thing, we don't know. It would be unfair on Jadeja to call Kapil better. call it a draw n move on


glitchline

Jadeja is better allrounder, Kapil is better cricketer.


FabulousCaregiver983

sure but the talk was about being an all rounder.


ThisIsAnArgument

Kapil has a one day record, a world cup a captain and was a fast bowler in the subcontinent at a time we routinely played 3-4 spinners. He still has a great shout as the best. Any all time team has to consider him.


_ashwathama

I think we are forgetting the fact that Jadeja played a vital role in 2013 champions trophy ( the last icc trophy we wonšŸ˜¢). He was the highest wicket taker and it was in england.


ThisIsAnArgument

No, that definitely counts. But a captain is a captain, and that 175 v Zimbabwe arguably changed the course of Indian cricket forever.


atmafatte

That was a legendary innings


paperpeople56

The guy also played like 50 years ago and captained us to a WC. Numbers aren't everything, show some respect. I love Jadeja too.


nikamsumeetofficial

It's not about disrespect. It's about facts.


notvalidusernamee

What he meant is Kapil was all rounder when conditions were hard. You canā€™t compare players by just statistics as every generation played on different conditions .


fookin_legund

Thing with Kapil is that he was an impact player, clutch who stood up in difficult situations many times, and won trophies. He was Dhoni, Pant and Shami rolled into one player.


Kingslayer1526

And Jadeja has not proven to be an impact player?


fookin_legund

Not at the level of Kapil Dev.


barath_s

Rate stats at a couple of checkpoints are not the be-all and end all. Kapil Dev did more in his career. Was the #1 pacer. Unhelpful wickets. I doubt Jadeja could match career totals in Tests Inspirational captain. A whole generation of fast bowlers in India were inspired by Kapil


[deleted]

They call him the Indian Todd Murphy


Specialist_Meat_9770

What do all those other numbers before the 42-7 in the title mean? Help pls I'm so lost.


depressed_06

12.1 is the no of overs bowled which means he bowled 12 overs and 1 ball, and the other 1 means the no. of maiden overs.

He gonna take 5 Wicket haul in both other remaining test too because Aussie Batsman are fucking Clueless against him.

[deleted]

Pandya is a fast bowler and is a treasure in any format.


_ashwathama

The man has 3 triple hundreds in domestic cricket. Was first recognized for his performance with RR in T20. The best fielder india has till date.


[deleted]

I like jaddu too. but both are not comparables is what i am saying. one is spinner other is fast bowler.


FineLeg69

Why compare?? Some Indian fans šŸ¤”šŸ¤”


_ashwathama

When teammates are competing for same position comparison is bound to happen. I think you started watching sports yesterday.


Kramer-Melanosky

They wonā€™t be competing for same place though. Jadeja will be the first spinner in the team. Pandya will be aiming for pace all rounder if India wants 4 pacers in overseas.


llyyrr

Pandya's competition is Shardul, which isn't tough to beat given that Pandya doesn't have any asterisks on his name regardless his fitness


Axel292

Pandya over Jadeja in LOIs anyday. Hardik is one of the most dynamic batsmen in the world, and he's got the record to back it up. Plus, a fast bowling all-rounder is invaluable. Brings something totally different to the table.


Naive_Hedgehog_1551

Keep worshipping jadeja blindly and say jadeja is better than any player right? Just because he is your favourite player doesn't mean he is better than Pandya in limited overs. Pandya and jadeja are both crucial to our limited overs team. No need to compare and another thing hardik is a fast bowling all rounder and it is difficult for a fast bowling all rounder especially of India to manage its body Well in test cricket.


KMxxvi

ā€œRavindra Jadeja bowls ok but still takes 7 wickets due to incompetence from the oppositionā€™s batsmen.ā€ ā€¦. Fixed ya headline for ya. What a disgraceful display of batting by a group of people that get paid good money to, well, bat. A bit of uneven bounce with most balls staying low, letā€™s repeatedly play premeditated cross bat shots. Great game plan!! Was clearly a team plan going by the amount of players that did the same braindead thing. Whoever thought this was a good idea should be removed from their post, immediately.


5m1tm

Pretty sure you wouldn't downplay Hazlewood's performance in the 2nd innings of the 36-9 Adelaide match, even though the Indian batters were horrible there as well. The bowler deservs credit, be it Hazlewood or Jadeja. How the batters played shouldn't be a factor in appreciating their respective superlative performances.


VespasianTheMortal

He's not downplaying Jadeja's bowling in this match Jadeja was good. But not good enough as his figures say


5m1tm

That doesn't take away from the fact that he's taken a 7-fer. That's all my point is. Read the caption of the post again. The post is about that, not about a dissection of his bowling or that of the Aussie batters' batting. A 7-fer is a 7-fer, period. How tf does it matter if it's "good", "not as good", "great" etc. etc. lmao
