Jadeja took seven wickets for 42 runs in 12.1 overs. Along with him, Ravichandran Ashwin grabbed three wickets for 59 runs in 16 overs. Australian batters had no clue about the spinning web of those spinners on day three. They got bundled out in the first session only and set a target of 115 runs for India.

Ravindra Jadeja has taken 17 wickets so far in this ongoing series 

Fans were in an ecstatic mood after seeing Ravindra Jadeja in such a form in the ongoing Delhi Test. In the series opener in Nagpur, Jadeja took seven wickets with the ball while scoring 70 runs with the bat. He also won the player of the match award for his performance in that match. So, fans were expecting to see him in action again with such form in the ongoing Delhi Test. Speaking about his contribution, Jadeja took three wickets for 68 runs in 21 overs in the first innings.

With the bat, he also came up with a vital contribution. Jadeja scored 26 runs off 74 balls, including four boundaries. After seeing such a performance from the star all-rounder, fans went crazy. They even claimed that he has been the best all-rounder in this format for team India in recent times. Before this series, Ravindra Jadeja played for Saurashtra against Tamil Nadu in the ongoing Ranji Trophy. Jadeja had a great game as he took eight wickets and scored 40 runs with the bat.
