The all-round star of the Indian team, Ravindra Jadeja, is often in discussions about his cricket performance. But this time he spoke of his mother. Jadeja shared his pain. When Jadeja was only 16 years old, he lost his mother. Jadeja wanted to quit cricket after losing her mother. She was very close to her mother.
His mother died in 2005 after a kitchen fire broke out. Jadeja was not present at home at the time. When she got home and saw everything, she had decided to quit cricket. At that time, Jadeja was only 16 years old and she had not even made her international debut. But after this he thought that his mother had done a lot for him.
Speaking about this to Indian Express, Jadeja said: “Why should I leave? After all, what did my mother do to make me a cricketer? She was very close to her mother. Her mother listened to everything Jadeja said and she always complied with all her demands even though they were a lower middle class family. Her father or sister used to scold Jadeja at home, then she used to go to her mother.
Jadeja returned to international cricket after around 6 months. He performed brilliantly in the first match of the four Test series against Australia. Whilst bowling he took 7 wickets and played a brilliant innings of 70 runs at bat.
Jadeja has played a total of 296 matches in her international career so far. Batting in 239 innings of these matches, he scored 5497 runs at an average of 33.51.
