IPL 2024: Ravindra Jadeja Gets A New Title "Cricket Thalapathy" By Harsha Bhogle

Ravindra Jadeja, known for his versatility, reaffirmed his status as one of the top spinners in the Indian Premier League by delivering a remarkable performance that led to Chennai Super Kings securing a thrilling victory in the IPL 2024.

Leveraging the challenging conditions of the Chepauk surface, Jadeja outsmarted the Kolkata Knight Riders batsmen during the crucial middle overs, guiding Chennai Super Kings to a convincing seven-wicket victory on Monday (April 8). This win marked a return to form for the Super Kings.

CSK’s triumph against the Kolkata Knight Riders marked their third win in five games, all achieved on their home turf at Chepauk. Despite facing defeats in their last two matches away from home, CSK has maintained a flawless record at their fortress, winning all three games played on their home ground.

Jadeja, whose spin bowling has sometimes been overshadowed in recent seasons, made a significant impact by taking three wickets in just eight deliveries, effectively dismantling KKR’s batting lineup. Facing difficulties in stroke-making on a challenging track, KKR could only muster 137 for 9.

The Saurashtra spinner, a fixture in the CSK dressing room since 2014, was rightly awarded the Player of the Match for his stellar figures of 3/14. Renowned for his exceptional fielding, Jadeja, touted to possess one of the safest pair of hands on the cricket field, reached a milestone by completing 100 catches in the IPL, securing a couple more in the outfield against KKR.

In the post-match presentation, Indian commentator Harsha Bhogle floated the idea of giving Ravindra Jadeja the nickname ‘Cricket Thalapathy’, akin to the affectionate titles ‘Thala’ and ‘Chinna Thala’ bestowed upon MS Dhoni and Suresh Raina by CSK fans.

Responding with his trademark wit, the beloved Indian all-rounder, often referred to as ‘Sir Jadeja’, humorously stated that any such nickname must be endorsed and embraced by passionate CSK supporters.

Bhogle shared on X, “I don’t believe there’s another stadium in India where the crowd nearly becomes a part of the post-match ceremony. I thoroughly enjoy it here. So, @ChennaiIPL, are you going to grant Jadeja the ‘verification’ for ‘Cricket Thalapathi’?”

I don’t think there is another ground in India where the crowd almost becomes part of the post match presentation. I love doing it here. So @ChennaiIPL are you going to give Jadeja the ‘verification’ for “Cricket Thalapathi”?

Moments later, the CSK handle on X, formerly known as Twitter, posted, “π—©π—˜π—₯π—œπ—™π—œπ—˜π—— 𝗔𝗦 𝗖π—₯π—œπ—–π—žπ—˜π—§ π—§π—›π—”π—Ÿπ—”π—£π—”π—§π—›π—¬ πŸ˜‰.” Jadeja also expressed gratitude towards the veteran commentator for his kind gesture, responding with a simple “thanks a lot” to Bhogle’s post.

Check out his reply:

 

Thanks a lot
