Ravindra Jadeja

Indian cricketer (born 1988)

Ravindra Jadeja is described in the public record as Indian cricketer (born 1988). Born in Navagam Ghed, India, in 1988.

Ravindrasinh Anirudhsinh Jadeja (born 6 December 1988) is an Indian cricketer who represents the India national team currently in ODI and Test formats. He is an all-rounder, who bats left-handed and bowls left-arm orthodox spin. He is widely regarded as one of the greatest all-rounders and among the finest fielders of his generation. He represents Saurashtra in domestic cricket and Rajasthan Royals in the Indian Premier League. Jadeja was a crucial member of the Indian teams that won the 2013 and 2025 ICC Champions Trophy, becoming leading wicket-taker and player of the final in the former and hitting the winning boundary in the latter final. He was also a part of the Indian squad that won the 2024 ICC T20 World Cup, after which he announced his retirement from T20Is. Jadeja was vice-captain of the Indian U-19 cricket team that won the World Cup in Malaysia in 2008, under the captaincy of former Indian captain Virat Kohli.

Ravindra Jadeja is recorded among the figures by whom cricket is remembered, and the surviving account of that career is the basis on which the reputation rests.

Cricket is played in formats lasting from three hours to five days, and a career average across them remains the sport's most argued-over number.
