The absence of Ravindra Jadeja from the tour of Australia is a major setback for Team India. In fact, Ravinder Jadeja was in form with both the ball and the bat. In the Melbourne Test, Ravinder Jadeja scored a magnificent half-century and in the first innings of the Sydney Test, Ravinder Jadeja took four wickets. Apart from this, Ravinder Jadeja also gives a lot of support from his fielding. Ravinder Jadeja had run out Steve Smith in the first innings.
Chattiswar Pujara also said after the third day of the Sydney Test that Team India is going to miss Ravindra Jadeja. “Honestly, Ravinder Jadeja’s injury has had an effect,” he said. We have only four bowlers. This puts extra pressure on the bowlers. Lack of a bowler will not make things easier, especially if he is like Ravindra Jadeja, who took four wickets in the first innings and kept up the pressure from one end.
