However, before making his mark on the big stage, Jadeja has put in a lot of hard work in domestic cricket. For this, he has proved his mettle with both bat and ball. Do you know that this 35-year-old player has three triple centuries in domestic cricket? Today we are going to talk about one of those innings. Let's know in detail.

When Ravindra Jadeja hit a triple century

This incident is of 1 December 2012. Ranji Trophy was going on. Under this, a match was being played between Saurashtra and Railways. After winning the toss, Saurashtra decided to bat first. This decision of theirs later proved to be right. The batsmen of this team who came to bat first created havoc.

Ravindra Jadeja, who came to the crease after three wickets fell in quick succession, brought trouble to the bowlers. The left-handed batsman scored 331 runs in 501 balls with the help of 29 fours and 7 sixes. During this, Jadeja's strike rate was 66.06. Saurashtra had scored a mountainous score of 576 runs in the first innings. Later, the match ended in a draw.

Did not get a chance in the team on Sri Lanka tour

Ravindra Jadeja recently announced his retirement from the T20 format after the ICC T20 World Cup 2024 played in the US and West Indies. However, he is still going to play ODIs and Tests. Despite this, this experienced player was not given a place in the team selected for the ODI series on the Sri Lanka tour.

When chief selector Ajit Agarkar was asked about this during the press conference, he said that Jadeja has not been dropped. This senior cricketer has been given rest for the upcoming home series. Team India is going to play a Test series against Bangladesh and New Zealand at home this year. In such a situation, it is very important for the Indian team that Jadeja remains fully fit.
