'Need Axar Patel in place of Ravindra Jadeja': All-rounder brutally slammed after failing with bat in Bengaluru Test
Published - 19 Oct 2024, 04:23 PM | Updated - 19 Oct 2024, 04:47 PM

India allrounder Ravindra Jadeja was dismissed for just 5 runs during the second innings of the first Test between India and New Zealand at M Chinnaswamy Stadium, Bengaluru. This was Jadeja's second successive low score of the match as he had been dismissed for a duck in the first innings.
The left-hander did not have a great Test match with the bat. He registered scores of 0 & 5 across both the innings. His low scores have cost India as the team required him to play a significant knock in both the innings.
But unfortunately, it turned out to be a disappointing match for Jadeja with the bat. As a result, the social media slammed the star India allrounder and threw their weight behind Axar Patel to replace him.

Need sarfu to stay in place of kl.
We move in to next 2 test matches. Hoping to win.
How fast the things changed man. An hour back, India were getting ahead & now it's all boom. Rahul & Jadeja fkd up all the hardwork.

Ravindra Jadeja is a great Test player, no doubt about that par aise situations me batting karna usse 15 saal international cricket khelne ke baad bhi nahi aaya. Kya wahiyat shot tha wo.

I don't know what Jadeja and KL Rahul do for Team India , absolutely useless players

Painful collapse. Jadeja seems to be sunsetting. KL Rahul never had a sunrise. The tail is after all the tail.

Any sign of trouble and Jadeja just abandons us

Kl Rahul and Jadeja are the culprit they never perform with bat when needed

In the 2023 Test series against Australia, he batted at an average of 88.

Ravindra Jadeja's last fifty-plus score
Ravindra Jadeja's last significant innings came in the first Test match between India and Bangladesh at Chennai where he scored 86 in the first innings. Since then, he has gone for three innings with low scores.
However, Jadeja had a good time with the ball in New Zealand's first innings where he was the pick of the Indian bowlers with 3-72 in 20 overs. The left-arm spinner picked up the wickets of Will Young, Glenn Phillips, and Matt Henry.
