In Kanpur Test against Bangladesh Ravindra Jadeja eyes Sachin Tendulkar’s record

Without the shadow of a doubt the all rounder of team India RavindraJadeja has established himself as one of India’s finest bowling all-rounders over the decade.His journey from being a talented left-arm spinner to a bowling all-rounder has been nothing short of remarkable.

As Jadejais getting ready for the second Test against Bangladesh, multiple milestones are within his reach. Let’s take a glimpse at some of the milestones the all-rounder can achieve in the upcoming Test.

RavindraJadeja has scored 234 runs against Bangladesh in Tests, and with just one solid knock in the Kanpur Test, he could surpass some notable Indian batters.

If he scores fifty-plus runs, Jadeja can pass Murali Vijay (295 runs), Dinesh Karthik (270 runs) Mayank Agarwal (257 runs) Test run tally against Bangladesh. Given Jadeja’s current form, it won’t be surprising if he surpasses these players in the upcoming match.

While the legendary Sachin Tendulkar is best-known for his countless records in the game of cricket, RavindraJadeja is on the verge of going past the Master Blaster in Test sixes category.

For the record, Tendulkar hit 67 sixes in his entire Test career whereas Jadeja has struck 66 sixes and needs just 3 more sixes to go past him. He can achieve that feat if he gets runs on the board in Kanpur.
