India All-Rounder Ravindra Jadeja’s Recent Performance
Ravindra Jadeja played for Saurashtra in the Ranji Trophy 2024-25. His team won against Assam by an innings and 144 runs. This win helped Saurashtra secure the top position in their group.
Jadeja performed well in the previous match against Delhi. He took 12 wickets, including a seven-wicket haul. He also became the fourth Saurashtra bowler to reach 200 wickets in Ranji Trophy history. His total First-Class wickets crossed 550.
Why Did Jadeja Not Bowl Against Assam?
During the match against Assam, Jadeja did not bowl. This made people wonder if he was injured. He played as a batter and scored 19 runs off 28 balls while batting at No. 9. He was later replaced in the field by Vishvarajsinh Jadeja.
A Saurashtra team member confirmed that Jadeja is not injured. He was rested for precautionary reasons. The reason is that Jadeja is an important player for India’s ODI team for the England series and the upcoming Champions Trophy 2025.
