India have produced several cricket diamonds in the past with the likes of Sunil Gavaskar, Kapil Dev, Sachin Tendulkar, Sourav Ganguly, Virat Kohli etc. One such diamond, Ravindra Jadeja, who later adorned the cricket arena turned 34 today (Tuesday).
The left-handed all-rounder rose to the cricket bandwagon when he was the vice-captain of the Indian U-19 cricket team that won the World Cup in Malaysia in 2008 under the leadership of Virat Kohli.
With his master class three triple hundreds in first-class cricket, the Indian legend got his name alongside all-time 'Greats' like Don Bradman, Brian Lara, Mike Hussey, Wally Hammond, and Graeme Hick who too accomplished this feat.
The ace Indian allrounder was part of the victorious Rajasthan Royals IPL franchise that won the inaugural title in 2008 under the marquee leadership of Shane Warne, who later gave him the name 'Rockstar'.
The flamboyant cricketer has developed his own way of celebrating a special achievement on the field by wielding his willow like a sword.
Jadeja has always been an integral part of the Indian team. With his all-around performance, he has turned many drifting matches in India's favour.
