IPL 2018: 3 reasons why CSK are persisting with Ravindra Jadeja

#1 Handy contribution

Jadeja celebrating the victory after hitting a six against KKR

Jadeja is famous for his handy explosive knocks at the end of the innings. Besides, his quick arm bowling action will fetch him valuable wickets at crucial junctures. However, he lacks consistency, which is his only major weakness. Nevertheless, he is always a handy player for any team.

In the match against Kolkata Knight Riders, he hit a massive six to seal a victory for his team with just a single ball left in the game. In the last match against Delhi Daredevils, he picked up the crucial wicket of Glenn Maxwell. At the same time, one has to accept the fact that he did not get adequate opportunities with the bat in this season.

No one apart from the team management had better knew the capability of Jadeja. Besides, there is no other experienced player in the CSK squad to replace him. Therefore, it is unfair to lay down so much criticism on Jadeja and debate about his role in the team. All one can do right now is to sit back, relax and enjoy the quality of cricket displayed by the men in yellow.
