Manjrekar praised Jadeja during the TV show
During a discussion on Star Sports, Manjrekar heaped praise on Ravindra Jadeja. He said, “It was the best spell bowled by an Indian spinner in the last several years. The way Mitchell Marsh was playing and the starts he got, we were all thinking that the par score could be 350. Shami and Siraj took wickets, but I think the real hero was Ravindra Jadeja. Manjrekar said that Ravindra Jadeja dismissed Mitchell Marsh, who was batting well, and caught Marnus Labuschagne. From here the match came in favor of India. “The wicket of Mitchell Marsh and then that catch of Marnus Labuschagne. This was the turning point. If those wickets had not come, he had so much depth and power in his batting that he would have reached close to 350.

Jadeja contributed in all departments
Sanjay Manjrekar said, “It didn’t seem at all that he had been away from the field for eight months. He contributed in all departments in the first ODI as well. He took an incredible catch, bowled brilliantly and supported KL Rahul very well with the bat. I have seen very few players come back like this after injury.
