2nd Test: Ravindra Jadeja Is A Complete Package, Says Bowling Coach Morne Morkel After 3000-run/300-wicket Double
Morkel, speaking to the media after Day 4 of the match, extolled Jadeja’s incredible versatility and his impact on the game over the years. “For me, he's a complete package. You know, he bats, he bowls, he's a guy in the field that can make magic happen. There's always a guy that you want in your team, and he's done that for so many years for India,” said Morkel.
Jadeja, 35, reached the milestone when he dismissed Bangladesh’s Hasan Mahmud on Day 4, becoming the seventh Indian to claim 300 wickets in Test cricket. Achieving the double of 300 wickets and 3,000 runs in Tests, Jadeja is now the second fastest to this milestone, taking just 74 matches—two more than England legend Sir Ian Botham. “To join the 300-wicket club is special. He's a guy that works on his game, and that is what you want to see,” Morkel continued.
