Ravindra Jadeja or 'Sir' is one of the most loved Indian Bowling All rounder of all time. Initially, the 29-year-old bore a clean-shaven look but it will be hard to remember that now as Jaddu has kept a beard and moustache for a long time.

He is said to have been inspired by fellow teammate Shikhar Dhawan to keep the moustache and considers it to be his lucky charm. Over time, he has become one of India's most stylish cricketers and is also known for his tattoos.

The Saurashtra-born player has had difficulty lately finding his place in the ODI team but is a regular in the test squad. In 39 tests, he has 185 wickets to his name with a bowling average of an impressive 23.5 and a batting average of 32.44.

Jadeja made a terrific comeback to the ODI squad as well during the 2018 Asia Cup, when he picked up a phenomenal 4 wickets for just 29 runs in his 10 overs in the match against Bangladesh. He was also a part of the Men in Blue's ODI team in the recent West Indies Tour of India and particularly impressed in the 5th ODI where he picked up 4/34. Jadeja is also an integral part of the Chennai Super Kings in the IPL as well.
