After Ravindra Jadeja grabbed attention of the world with his superb comeback in 1st Test vs Australia, take a look at all his controversies.
Jadeja once batted with 'Rajput', which is his caste, written on his cricket shoes. This act did not go down well with fans who argued that there was no need to boast about his caste in this way.
In 2016, Jadeja took a selfie with a group of Lions in Gir Wildlife Sanctuary, an act strictly prohibited by law. He was later let off after paying a fine of Rs 20,000.
After unsuccessful IPL 2022, Jadeja allegedly unfollowed CSK on social media amid rift with owner N Srinivasan. After getting wrath of fans, he signed up to play for CSK again.
Jadeja became captain of CSK at start of IPL 2022 but handed over captaincy back to MS Dhoni after failures. Reports said that he was asked to quit. Reportedly the decision did not go down well with Jaddu who was upset with MSD.
Ahead of IPL 2010, Jadeja, then playing for Rajasthan Royals, contracted Mumbai Indians for better deals. This was a breach to players’ guidelines and hence he was banned for one year.
