IND vs BAN Live: Ravindra Jadeja on 300 Test wickets!

“It’s special (300 Test wickets). I’ve been playing Test cricket since 10 years and I’ve finally reached this milestone. Feeling proud of myself. Always happy and excited whenever I wear the Indian jersey. As a youngster I started in white ball cricket. Everyone used to say I’m a white-ball specialist. Gradually I improved my game and it has paid off in the last few years. When I go for batting, I always look to give myself some time and understand the situation. I react to the ball and play my shots. We batted very well. Whatever we planned, we batted accordingly. Hopefully we get them out as early as possible,” said the left-arm spinner.
