Ravindra Jadeja retired from the shortest format of the game after winning the T20 World Cup 2024
It is the end for Ravindra Jadeja in ODIs, right before the IND vs ENG series and the ICC Champions Trophy? The veteran all-rounder’s cryptic post on social media has raised huge concerns for the India Cricket Team. Jadeja had already retired from T20Is after winning the T20 World Cup.
The 36-year-old’s performance has been under the scanner off late. As per reports, the BCCI Selection Committee is looking for options beyond the superstar. And now Jadeja’s Instagram story which had a Test jersey with Pink number 8, adds fuel to the fire. It was Jadeja’s jersey number for the Sydney Test.
End of Ravindra Jadeja in ODIs?
There have been reports that the selectors are looking forward from Jadeja. This comes after Jadeja was ignored as a bowler in the recently concluded Border Gavaskar Trophy. The southpaw was featured in just 3 Test matches out of the 5 games in Down Under.
“It’s all about when the selectors decide the transition needs to kick in. They will discuss if they want to go with a safe option in (Ravindra) Jadeja or move on right now,” a source told The Times of India.
“Even in Test cricket, he has struggled to get going, though his bowling has been steady. There is an urge to move on from him, especially in the ODI format. It will be a tough call in the coming days,” the source added.
It remains to be seen what the BCCI think tank decide as the squad announcement might be delayed for some time. In the meantime, the board should be keen to put forward the best Playing XI that they can from the team. India had last won the Champions Trophy back in 2013.
