In IPL history, Ravindra Jadeja became the first player to achieve a unique triplet.
With his outstanding bowling and fielding performance against KKR in Chennai, Ravindra Jadeja wrote history in that match. The all-star cricket player’s outstanding run with the ball and a few clutch catches helped CSK get back on track. The CSK player accomplished a rare triplet that no other IPL player had ever accomplished.
The 35-year-old became the first player in history to accomplish the triplet of reaching 1000 runs, 100 wickets, and 100 catches. It is a remarkable accomplishment that validates his status as one of the best all-around players in the history of the game. His effort during the contest gave CSK the upper hand.
Even though they lost Phil Salt early in the innings, KKR ended the powerplay with 56 runs for the loss of one wicket. In the middle overs, Jadeja worked his magic on a sluggish pitch. He started by getting rid of Sunil Narine, a threatening batsman who placed KKR on the back foot. After that, the conventional left-arm spinner dismissed the formidable Angkrish Raghuvanshi.
Against KKR, Ravindra Jadeja was the MVP.
In addition, he got rid of Venkatesh Iyer and took the third wicket of the evening. The elite spinner took three wickets and gave up just eighteen runs in his four overs. The key to CSK limiting KKR to just 137 runs on the board was an economy of 4.50. He made two significant catches as a fielder and affected the outcome.
In order to get 100 catches in the IPL, Jadeja claimed catches from Phil Salt and Shreyas Iyer. With seven wickets remaining and 14 balls remaining, CSK managed to chase the total. Due to his bowling and fielding performances, the rock star was deservedly chosen player of the match. It was a fantastic illustration of the kind of impact a cricket player like Jadeja can have on the game.
