Ravindra Jadeja’s love story with his wife Rivaba is a tale straight out of a Bollywood movie. Their paths crossed at a social gathering arranged by Jadeja’s sister, Naina.

Ravindra Jadeja’s success extends to the Indian Premier League (IPL) as well. He made his debut for Shane Warne’s Rajasthan Royals in the inaugural edition and became the champion. In 2012, Jadeja joined Chennai Super Kings (CSK), where he became MS Dhoni’s trusted lieutenant. Jadeja has been a crucial part of CSK’s success, lifting three IPL titles with the team in 2018, 2021, and 2023. He has played in 226 IPL matches, scoring 2692 runs and taking 152 wickets.

In 2013, during an IPL match against Royal Challengers Bangalore, CSK captain MS Dhoni, impressed by Jadeja’s grit and determination, called him “sir” in a tweet. This incident gave rise to the nickname ‘Sir Jadeja,’ which has stuck with the cricketer ever since.

As he continues to excel on the cricket field, we can expect many more remarkable performances from the man they call ‘Sir.’
