Ravindra Jadeja’s message for MS Dhoni and Virat Kohli will make you admire the all-rounder even more

India’s Ravindra Jadeja on Tuesday edged out Bangladesh’s Shakib Al Hasan to claim the top-rank among all-rounders in Tests, apart from maintaining pole position in the bowlers’ chart in the latest ICC rankings. Jadeja currently has 438 points among the all-rounders while Shakib has 431 points.

Jadeja took to social media later in the day to pay a special thanks to Mahendra Singh Dhoni and Virat Kohli. The support from the former and current India captains has played an instrumental role in shaping Jadeja’s career, and the all-rounder gave the duo their due credit.

“My humble journey 2 be #1 Test AllRounder & bowler was possible due 2 @msdhoni @imVkohli, my fans & family,” wrote Jadeja on Twitter.
