IND Vs ENG: Ravindra Jadeja decided to play in Rajkot test, team released big update

With a 1-1 draw, the ongoing five-Test series between England and India has taken an intriguing turn. On February 15, Rajkot will host the third game in the series. Both teams want to play with their best playing eleven to win and gain the lead in this encounter. Due to an injury, KL Rahul will not participate in this test. Kuldeep Yadav has since provided a significant update on Ravindra Jadeja. Kuldeep Yadav said that Jadeja has been doing net practice since February 12 and he is completely fit to play the third test of the series.

Ravindra Jadeja was unable to participate in the Visakhapatnam Test against England due to an injury sustained during the Hyderabad Test match. Only when Jadeja was picked for the team squad for the final three Tests did his chances of playing in the third Test improve. But at the time, BCCI had stated that KL Rahul's performance was dependent on their level of fitness.

Two days before the Rajkot Test, on Tuesday, Chinaman spinner Kuldeep Yadav provided a significant update on Ravindra Jadeja. There is a good chance that Ravindra Jadeja will participate in the third test, according to Kuldeep Yadav. He now appears fit. On February 12, he also practised using the net. In my opinion, Jadeja will be included in the Indian squad for the Rajkot Test.

Some big changes are certain after Ravindra Jadeja's inclusion in the playing 11. Jadeja's Kuldeep got a chance in the second test. However, four spinners can be used instead of three in the Rajkot Test. In such a situation, it is certain for Jadeja to play with Ashwin and Akshar. At the same time, Bumrah will also be a part of this match. Now the question is who will be the fifth bowler? If the team goes with four spinners then Kuldeep will remain in the team. If this does not happen then Mohammed Siraj's return is certain.
