Ravindra Jadeja has been in amazing form in the IPL 2021.
After spectacular bowling and fielding efforts in his last two matches, Jadeja showed why he is one of the best all-rounders in the world against Royal Challengers Bangalore.
Jadeja changed the course of the match for Chennai Super Kings on Sunday as he smashed 37 runs in the last over of match 19 of IPL 2021.
Before the over, CSK were languishing at 154 with Dhoni and Jadeja at the crease in the IPL 2021 match.
But Jadeja took over the proceedings and smashed Harshal Patel for five sixes and a four in the last over. Patel also bowled a no-ball and gave away two runs.It was an incredible display of hitting from Jadeja as he made sure CSK reached an above-par score at the Wankhede Stadium.
Jadeja ended the innings on 62off just 28 balls, hitting four fours in addition to the five sixes.
He put up a partnership of 49 runs off 17 balls for the fifth wicket with his partner, captain Dhoni, contributing just two runs in it.
Jadeja was dropped on zero by Dan Christian off Washington Sundar in the15th over.
Jadeja's rampage made the 20th over of the match the joint most expensive in the IPL's history, first set by Chris Gayle for RCB in 2011 when he scored 37 runs off Prasanth Parameswaran against Kochi Tuskers Kerala.
