NEW DELHI: Seasoned left-arm spinner Ravindra Jadeja on Friday surged ahead of the iconic pace duo of Zaheer Khan and Ishant Sharma to become India’s fifth-highest wicket-taker in Test cricket.
On a dramatic opening day of the third Test against New Zealand in Mumbai, where momentum shifted frequently, Jadeja's consistent performance stood out. He delivered a stellar five-wicket haul, conceding just 65 runs in his 22 overs, maintaining an impressive economy rate of 3.00.
