These days, the Indian cricket team is under curfew, which means that the players cannot break the guidelines made by the board under any circumstances nor can they do as they please, whether it is in their interest or the interest of the team. Despite such strict rules, if a player breaks the guidelines, you can imagine what will happen to that player.
On the second day of the Edgbaston Test, something happened in the Indian team hotel that is strictly prohibited by the board. A player left the team bus and went to the stadium earlier. This came to light when a search was started for him on the bus. Although that player left the bus in the interest of the team and left earlier in the car, the rule was broken, and the one who broke this rule was none other than the team’s senior player, Ravindra Jadeja.
Why did Jadeja break the rule?
When the first day’s play of the Edgbaston Test match ended, Ravindra Jadeja returned not out along with Shubman Gill. This test match was very important for Jadeja because after losing in Leeds, many cricket experts were raising questions about his place in the team. That is why when Jadeja returned unbeaten after scoring 41 runs, he wanted to make this innings bigger. That is why he woke up early in the morning and left for the stadium without waiting for the team bus, where he batted for about 40 minutes in the nets before entering the match with the local bowlers. Later, when he came out to bat in this test, his hard work was visible in the game. Ravindra Jadeja got out on a score of 89, but by then he had taken the team to a very strong position along with Gill and had also indicated to the management how right the decision to leave the team bus was.
