India all-rounder Ravindra Jadeja has become the only the third Indian cricketer to play 50 games across all three formats. He has joined MS Dhoni and Virat Kohli in the elusive club. Jadeja has played 50 Tests, 168 ODIs, and 50 T20Is and thanked BCCI in a tweet.
"It's a great honour to join Mahi Bhai and Virat as the only others to have played 50 games across all 3 formats for India. A big thank you to the BCCI, my team mates, the brilliant support staff for showing faith in me and for always backing me. Onwards and upwards. Jai Hind," Jadeja tweeted.
Earlier India beat Australia by 8 wickets and levelled the four match Test series 1-1. Jadeja played a huge role in India's win. He scored a solid 57 and alongside Ajinkya Rahane laid the foundation for India's win. Chasing 70 to win in the second session of the fourth day, India managed to get the runs needed in 15.5 overs despite losing two early wickets. A 51-run stand between Ajinkya Rahane and Shubman Gill ensured the visitors got home with minimal fuss despite an early double strike giving the hosts a glimmer of hope. However, no one can argue that India's win was anything but deserves given they dominated for most parts of the Test match.
