Jadeja enters record books

Indore, March 1: Star allrounder Ravindra Jadeja on Wednesday entered the record books, becoming only the second Indian player after Kapil Dev to take 500 wickets and amass 5,000 runs in international cricket.
The 34-year-old achieved the rare feat on the opening day of the third Test between India and Australia when he trapped opener Travis Head leg-before for his 260th wicket in Test cricket, which took his overall tally to 500 wickets across the three formats.
Jadeja has so far claimed 189 wickets in 171 ODIs and in the shortest format the left-arm spinner has 51 dismissals to his name in 64 appearances. He has scored 2,619 runs in the longest format. In ODIs, Jadeja has scored 2,447 runs and in T20Is, he has hit 457 runs. (PTI)
