🚨"I used to bat at No. 4 in Ranji Trophy with a 60+ average — Ravindra Jadeja🚨 Ravindra Jadeja🗣️: "In domestic cricket, I batted at No. 4, had a 60+ average, and scored three triple centuries! But when I arrived in the Indian Test team, I was pushed down to No. 8 or No. 9. Sitting padded up while fast bowlers beside me were already picking new balls for the next innings used to hurt my confidence. I felt the team didn't believe in my batting." "In challenging conditions like England, I completely removed cover drives and square cuts from my book. Deciding in the dressing room not to play risky shots is easy, but sticking to that discipline for 3 hours against swinging red balls takes massive mental toughness." "Now I just play what the team needs. On turning tracks, I become the frontline specialist bowler. On flat or seaming tracks in England and Australia, I step up as a pure specialist batter."
