Jadeja Adopts Wicket-Taking Mindset in Red-Ball Cricket
Jadeja Now Bowls With Wicket Taking Mindset More Than Ever: Pujara · deccanchronicle.com

Ravindra Jadeja, a famous Indian cricketer, has changed how he bowls in important red-ball cricket games.

Before, he focused on not letting the other team score many runs, especially when the pitch wasn't helping the bowlers.

But now, he tries to take wickets in every game by bowling straight at the stumps.

Cheteshwar Pujara, another famous cricketer, said this change is very important.

Jadeja is using the cricket pitch better, changing his bowling style based on the batter he's facing.

This new way of thinking helps him play much better.
