Twitterati want MS Dhoni to sack Jadeja from CSK

The moment CSK picked their team in this year’s auctions, chances were rife that they would not end up being a great fielding side. This has been admitted by skipper MS Dhoni himself on several occasions. The team has some tiring legs but the last person you would expect to let the team down is Ravindra Jadeja.

Touted as the best Indian fielder and one of the best fielders in world cricket, Jadeja is generally a safe fielder. Batsmen think twice before taking on his throwing arm. Due to his athleticism and nimble feet, he also gets to field in the most crucial spots on the field.

CSK’s fixture against KKR was one such match when Jaddu was fielding at mid off. It was the 2nd over and Sunil Narine was facing young pacer KM Asif. Narine was lining Asif up to loft the ball in front of the wicket.

On the last two balls of the over Jadeja made a mess of two catches that went towards him. The first catch went towards his left as the wiry all-rounder failed to pouch it. The next one was a little high and Jadeja horribly mistimed his jump to miss his second consecutive match of the over.

Apart from missing two crunch catches, Jadeja could not contribute with either the bat or the ball. This was too much for Twitterati to take and they urged CSK skipper MS Dhoni to drop him for the coming CSK matches.
