Ravindra Jadeja Achieves Career-Best ICC Test Ranking

Ravindra Jadeja achieved a career-best ICC Test rating of 475 points after a strong performance against Bangladesh, scoring 86 runs and taking five wickets in the first Test. His teammate, R Ashwin, also excelled, scoring a century and retaining his second position in the all-rounders ranking with 370 points. Jadeja's contributions often go unnoticed compared to Ashwin's, despite his pivotal role in India's recent victories, including a crucial 199-run partnership with Ashwin. As he nears the milestone of 300 wickets and 3000 runs in Test cricket, Jadeja's consistent excellence highlights his importance to the team. Dinesh Karthik praised Jadeja as the most improved all-rounder since 2017, emphasizing his reliability with both bat and ball. The second Test is set to take place in Kanpur on September 27.
