Shubman Gill: Ajay Jadeja gave a big statement
Let us tell you that after the end of the England vs India five-match Test series, Ajay Jadeja said on Sony Sports-
If we look at his captaincy throughout the series, he has been performing consistently well. He has been defensive. The kind of team you selected in the first match was the first sign. After that, he has improved. When he felt there was a shortcoming, he changed it the next time.
His approach is not aggressive. His approach is defensive. However, one good thing was seen, although, I do not agree with it, but his perseverance was seen, and it is also clearly visible on the scoreline. He has shown his consistency. He has shown his calmness. Today there was a moment when he had to take many decisions. Even when one run was needed on the last ball, he did not change his strategy.
