“Sir” Ravindra Jadeja as fans call him with affection, was at it again as he bagged yet another five wicket haul. Jadeja was absolutely brilliant as he took 3 wickets in an over to decimate New Zealand’s lower order. It was due to Jadeja’s sheer brilliance that the Kiwis were rolled over for just 262 after being in a relatively good position.

The Saurashtra star was simply lethal as he blew away the Blackcaps lower order to end with figures of 5-73. India gained a significant lead of 56 and that could have a great impact on the match. Fans lauded Jadeja on Twitter for his fine show and below are some of the tweets.
