Rajasthan Royals secure their fifth IPL 2026 win over Lucknow Super Giants, with Ravindra Jadeja explaining his calculated late assault and tactical approach.
Jadeja, who returned to the Royals in a high-profile trade that also saw Sam Curran join RR and Sanju Samson head the other way, admitted the change after 12–13 years with CSK was not easy to process.
Sharing pictures from the interaction on social media, Jadeja expressed his admiration for the Prime Minister. “An absolute privilege and honour to meet and interact with Hon’ble PM Shri Narendra Modi sir. His clarity of thought, enthusiasm, and commitment to excellence are deeply inspiring. A privilege to learn from such leadership,” Jadeja wrote on X.
The system is divided into four categories — A+, A, B and C — with annual payouts of Rs 7 crore, Rs 5 crore, Rs 3 crore, and Rs 1 crore, respectively.
New Zealand sealed their first-ever bilateral ODI series win in India after eight attempts, ending a wait of 37 years. The result came just over 16 months after their Test team had stunned India with a 3-0 whitewash at home in 2024.
At the end of the day's play, Aussies lead India by 47 runs. Australia resumed their innings at 71/1 after tea.
Jadeja bagged the second spot just behind England's legendary all-rounder Ian Botham who achieved this milestone feat in just 55 matches.
India clinched the massive win by innings and 132 runs within the first three days of the first Test of Border-Gavaskar Trophy against Australia at Nagpur.
Earlier on Saturday before India's Super Four clash with Pakistan, Indian head coach Rahul Dravid had announced that Jadeja sustained an injury in his knee and as a result, was ruled out of the ongoing Asia Cup 2022.
Dravid's comments come in the wake of reports that Jadeja, who has sustained a right knee injury, may undergo major surgery and will miss the T20 World Cup, scheduled to be played in October-November.
