Ranji Trophy: Ravindra Jadeja picks 5 wickets for Saurashtra against Delhi
Ravindra Jadeja marked a successful return to the Ranji Trophy on Thursday as he claimed a five-wicket haul against Delhi in their Round 6 match at the Niranjan Shah Stadium Ground C in Rajkot.
The left-arm orthodox bowler accounted for Navdeep Saini, Harsh Tyagi, Sanat Sangwan, Yash Dhull, and Ayush Badoni as the visiting side folded for 188.
This was the 35th career First-Class five-wicket haul for the 36-year-old. Jadeja’s last two wickets came off successive deliveries, meaning he will be on a hat-trick in the second innings.
Rishabh Pant, who was part of Delhi’s playing eleven, marked a sub-optimal return to first-class cricket, scoring just one run.
