Ravindra Jadeja is just a live wire on the cricket field. He is the best field fielder in modern-day cricket. His presence on any side acts as a boost for any team. On 19th April 2021, when Chennai Super Kings locked horns against Rajasthan Royals at the Wankhede Stadium, Jadeja yet again showed why he is regarded as the best fielder in the world.
He took a series of four spectacular catches in the match against Rajasthan Royals. The team from Chennai easily won the game and it was really good fielding from one of the best in the world. He took all the catches when he was standing on the boundary line.
Now, the social media is filled with an 8-year-old tweet from the CSK captain Mahendra Singh Dhoni regarding Ravindra Jadeja. Dhoni’s Tweet from 9th April 2013 read that Ravindra Jadeja does not run to take the catch, instead, the ball finds him and lands in his hand.

Chennai Super Kings register a comfortable victory against Rajasthan Royals
The match between Chennai Super Kings and Rajasthan Royals was a one-sided encounter. In the 12th match of the 14th season of the Indian Premier League (IPL), MS Dhoni’s Chennai Super Kings registered a 45 runs victory over Sanju Samson’s Rajasthan Royals.
CSK scored 199 runs for the loss of 9 wickets, batting first on the Wankhede wicket. Faf du Plessis ended up as the highest scorer among the CSK batsmen in the innings. He scored 33 runs off just 11 balls. Chetan Sakariya was the leading wicket-taker of the innings from the Rajasthan Royals team as he picked up 3 wickets. All-rounder Chris Morris also picked up a couple of wickets.
While chasing the target, Rajasthan Royals’ batting line up collapsed heavily in the middle overs. The Royals could end up scoring only 143 runs for the loss of nine wickets in their 20 overs. Jos Buttler was the highest scorer among the Rajasthan Royals batsman. He scored 49 runs. Apart from him, none of the other batsmen could cross the figure of 25 runs.
What Next For Ravindra Jadeja And CSK In This Year’s IPL?
The Chennai Super Kings have now managed to make a strong comeback after losing the first match of their campaign against the Delhi Capitals. They have now managed to win two back-to-back matches and now hold the second spot in the points table. They will face off against Eoin Morgan’s Kolkata Knight Riders in the next match of their campaign on April 21, 2021.
Rajasthan Royals, after this defeat, have plenty to ponder about. Captain Sanju Samson has been inconsistent with the bat. He needs to be consistent with his scoring. All-rounder Shivam Dube does not fit into this side as he has neither contributed with the bat nor the ball in all the three matches Rajasthan Royals have played.
