Thu Jan 23 21:50:29 UTC 2025: ## Jadeja’s Five-Wicket Haul Leads Saurashtra to Victory Over Delhi in Ranji Trophy
**Mumbai, January 24, 2025** – Ravindra Jadeja produced a stunning bowling performance to lead Saurashtra to victory over Delhi in their Ranji Trophy clash. The all-rounder took a five-wicket haul in Delhi’s first innings, restricting them to a paltry 188 runs.
Jadeja’s spell of 17.4 overs yielded figures of 5/66, showcasing his dominance with the ball. His victims included several key Delhi batsmen, among them Yash Dhull (44 runs), captain Ayush Badoni, and even the high-profile Rishabh Pant, who managed only 1 run from 10 balls. This was Jadeja’s 35th five-wicket haul in first-class cricket, bringing his career tally to 547 wickets – just three shy of the 550 mark.
While Jadeja shone, several prominent Indian batsmen struggled in the match. Rohit Sharma (3 runs), Shubman Gill (4 runs), and Yashasvi Jaiswal (4 runs) all underperformed alongside Pant.
This impressive performance follows Jadeja’s previous Ranji Trophy match against Tamil Nadu in 2023, where he claimed 7 wickets for 53 runs. The all-rounder continues to demonstrate his exceptional all-around abilities, solidifying his reputation as one of the greatest all-rounders of this generation.
