Virat Kohli or Ravindra Jadeja? Indian skipper reveals team's best fielder
There's always 'best fielder' debate in the Indian team and Kohli thought of settling it with his opinion.
Ravindra Jadeja and Virat Kohli are rated among the best fielders in international cricket at the moment. They are quick, athletic, and flexible when it comes down to their fielding. And, it is quite difficult to pick the best between these two cricketers. However, the current Indian skipper has given his verdict over the same and settled down the ‘best fielder’ debate.
Kohli is not only known for scoring runs for his team but also for his gun fielding as well. He is quite often spotted taking some impossible looking catches. Meanwhile, Ravindra Jadeja, the Indian all-rounder has also hogged the spotlight on the back of his brilliant fielding. Moreover, he had also turned many crucial games towards his team just by taking some out of the league catches or by running the batsmen out.
Virat Kohli ends the debate
On Wednesday, Star Sports took to their official Instagram handle and questioned cricket fans to pick the best fielder between Virat Kohli and Ravindra Jadeja. Their post read, “If you had one shot at hitting the stumps to save your life, who would you choose to throw for you – Jaddu or Virat?.”
As soon as the Indian skipper came across this post, he came out with a pleasing response to it. He said that Ravindra Jadeja is always going to be his first pick when it comes to fielding. Kohli took to his official Instagram handle and wrote, “Jaddu. Every time. End of debate.”
Earlier, in an interview, R Sridhar, the current fielding coach of Team India had also praised the all-rounder. He said that Jadeja is one of those fielders, who keeps the opposition on their toes with his fielding. As per him, he is the best fielder played for Team India in last decade.
“He is someone who can keep the opposition on their toes with his fielding. He has an intimidating presence on the field. I wouldn’t like to go very far but in the last decade or so Jadeja has been the best fielder India has had,” he had said,” Indian fielding coach said as quoted by Times of India.
