Aiming for Victory

New Zealand has given India a target of 147 runs to win. Team India has already lost this series and its reputation is at stake in the third test match. In such a situation, Ravindra tried his best so that Team India could win. Now the rest of the work is of the batsmen.

In the match played at Delhi’s Feroz Shah Kotla Stadium in February last year, Jadeja took 10 wickets against Australia. Jadeja took three wickets in the first innings and seven in the second innings.

With this, Jadeja has become the second Indian spinner to take five wickets in both innings of a Test match against New Zealand. Before him, Ravichandran Ashwin has done this. Ashwin did not get a single wicket in the first innings of the Mumbai Test match. At the same time, he took three wickets in the second innings.
