Former India player turneed commentator Sanjay Bangar has added that Ravindra Jadeja should try to bowl more deliveries like the one he delivered to dismiss Tagenarine Chanderpaul in the second Test against the West Indies. He added that the left-arm spinner rarely challenges a left-handed batter’s outside edge as well. However, Jadeja registered 3/37 in 14 overs as the West Indies ended Day 2 (Saturday, October 11) in Delhi at 140/4 in their first innings as well.

During a discussion on Star Sports, Bangar said, “I feel he should try to bowl more balls like the one with which he dismissed Chanderpaul because he doesn’t bowl that. If he starts challenging the outside edge as well, you can challenge both edges. We have spoken to him many times about this, that he should bowl around the wicket a little as well. However, if you have to bowl from over the wicket, bowl from a little closer to the stumps, so that the ball falls on the firm surface, and then goes straight from there. He attempts to always hit the rough from over the wicket. If he mixes it up, I feel you will find the wickets column increasing fast.”

Meanwhile, former India opener Aakash Chopra commented on Ravindra Jadeja’s success in Test cricket to his accuracy.

“Today’s day was in the captain and vice-captain’s name. He bowls at one spot. That is this bowler’s huge strength, and in Test cricket, you get success many times if you have the ability to bowl at one spot,” he said. “Two things are almost guaranteed with Jadeja. One is that the over will finish in one-and-a-half minutes, and secondly, he will bowl at the same spot repeatedly. He is neither going to give you too many balls to cut or pull nor will he bowl balls under the bat that can be driven. If there is even slight help on the pitch, he definitely extracts it,” Chopra said.
