Former Indian cricketer and legendary spinner Anil Kumble discussed what makes Ravindra Jadeja lethal.
On the second day of the second Test, three of West Indies' first four wickets went to Jadeja. Kumble explained how testing the batter with pace holds key on pitches that lose their natural pace.
On a surface like this, where the pace has slowed down, as the game has progressed, hitting that spot just short of a length and hurrying the batter is key. That’s exactly the kind of length Jadeja operates in.
Kumble compared how top pacers and Jadeja work almost the similar way when it comes to bowling on pitches which have lost their conduciveness for bowlers.
