RR has suffered a massive blow in the middle of their Qualifier 2 fixture against the Gujarat Titans as experienced all-rounder Ravindra Jadeja had to leave the field midway through his brilliant innings, following some trouble with his elbow.
Rajasthan Royals lost two wickets early into the Qualifier 2, and under those conditions, they needed someone who could add stability to the innings alongside Vaibhav Sooryavanshi's brute force and fearlessness. They sent in their most experienced campaigner Ravindra Jadeja.
Why did Ravindra Jadeja leave the field during the RR vs GT clash: Injury or Strategy?
Ravindra Jadeja came out to bat after being promoted to the middle order for the first time under the Rajasthan Royals camp. He played a stunning hand alongside the youngster and handed RR a perfect balance by the end of their powerplay.
RR managed to put on 70 runs just within the powerplay following a half-century partnership between Jadeja and Sooryavanshi. However, as soon as the power play ended, Jadeja, who was batting on 34 off just 19 balls, was declared retired hurt, and the skipper replaced him on the track.
Jadeja had taken some medical attention between the wickets, but it seemed more of a strategic move made right after the strategic timeout. However, the commentators claimed that he suffered a tennis elbow injury, which has been a concern for the Indian superstar in recent times.
