A star-player like Ravindra Jadeja doesn't require any introduction, he is one of the finest all-rounder India ever had and is one of the foremost fielder in the world right now. He is born on 6th December 1988 in Navagam, Gujarat and has turned 34 today. The sort of talent he possesses there is no doubt why we call him as “Sir Ravindra Jadeja” .

He scored a nail biting 77 runs from 59 balls during the 2019 ODI World Cup semi-final against New Zealand in Old Trafford, Manchester.
