Everyone remembers the famous victory against Pakistan in the 1996 World Cup in Bengaluru. But not many remember the extra runs that were added in the slog overs that put India in a formidable position for which the credit should go to Ajay Jadeja who scored a quickfire 45 off 25 balls tearing apart the Pakistan attack. It was one of those instances where Jadeja would come in and slog from the word go.

Having played in 196 ODIs he amassed 5359 runs batting in different positions. He was that kind of a player who was flexible enough to bat at any position. He was also a wonderful fielder taking some tough chances in the slips as well as in the deep. Apart from this, he would bowl medium pace occasionally finding some success. Basically, he would have been a perfect fit for the finisher role in the shortest format.
