Profile

An attacking left-handed middle-order batsman, a left-arm spinner whose strength is his accuracy, and an outstanding fielder with a fine throwing arm, Ravindra Jadeja is the quintessential limited-overs player. As a batsman his strength is more the ability to work the gaps than to bludgeon the big hits, but Jadeja has been reasonably consistent even when batting in difficult lower-middle-order slots in ODIs. His left-arm spin is a reliable option for the captain to go to, especially in subcontinental conditions, while his speed and safe catching abilities make him a huge asset anywhere in the field.
