Ravindra Jadeja Breaks Silence on Virat Kohli One-Handed Catch During 1st ODI | WATCH
Barbados: Ravindra Jadeja is arguably one of the weightier fielder in the world currently. He is usually the one who takes sunny catches of other’s bowling, but on this occasion, former India tutorage Virat Kohli took a one-handed screamer and that pleased the all-rounder. Hailing it as a faboulous catch, Jadeja felt it was good to see someone else take a reservation of his bowling.
“Virat Kohli took a mythological catch. It was low and Kohli held it wonderfully. Generally I take such catches on other’s bowling, but it felt good that somebody took it on my Bowling (laughs),” said Jadeja on a video shared by the BCCI.
