Ravindra Jadeja dedicated the Man of the Match award to his wife Rivaba, told why?

IND vs ENG: Captain Rohit Sharma, Ravindra Jadeja, Yashasvi Jaiswal, Sarfaraz Khan and Mohammed Siraj made important contributions to India's victory in the third Test of the five-match series. This is the reason why choosing the player of the match in the test match played in Rajkot was a difficult task. Jadeja, who scored a brilliant century in the first innings and took five wickets in the second innings, was adjudged man of the match for India. This award is very important for Jadeja. He was injured during the first match of the series and was ruled out of the second Test. Before the Rajkot Test match, an interview of Ravindra Jadeja's father had gone viral, in which he had said that Jadeja has changed after marriage and after the arrival of Rivaba, his relationship with his son has deteriorated.

After this interview, Jadeja made a post on social media, in which he said that these allegations are baseless. This controversy did not affect Jadeja's performance and he performed brilliantly on his home ground. When Jadeja came to bat in the first innings in the Rajkot Test, India's score was 33 runs for 3 wickets. Jadeja made a partnership of more than 200 runs with Rohit.

BCCI TV has shared a video, in which captain Rohit Sharma to Shubman Gill, batting coach Vikram Rathore told what was the turning point of the match. In this video, Ravindra Jadeja said about his Man of the Match award – Taking a century and five wickets in a Test match is special and winning on home ground is also special. I would like to dedicate this Player of the Match award to my wife. He has worked hard behind me mentally and has given me a lot of confidence.

Ravindra Jadeja and Rohit Sharma both scored centuries in the first innings. India scored 445 runs in the first innings, in response to which the England team was all out for 319 runs. After this India declared the second innings at the score of 430/4. In the second innings, Jadeja bowled brilliantly and took 5 wickets for 41 runs. India won the Rajkot test by 434 runs.
