#1 68 vs England, Lord’s – 2014 (2nd Test)
A lot of people remember this Test match for different reasons. One of the main reasons was a special knock from Jadeja. After scoring 295 in the first innings, India conceded a 24-run lead as England posted 319.
In the second essay, India were in trouble at 203/6 (which soon became 235/7) when Jadeja walked out to the centre. And what followed was absolutely mind-boggling. The way Jadeja counter-attacked just took the game away from England.
His belligerent 57-ball 68 helped India reach 342 and set the hosts a target of 319. The Saurashtra all-rounder spared none of the bowlers as he took the attack to England. Ishant’s bouncer barrage helped him take 7/74 as India registered a famous win. But it was Jadeja’s second innings blitz which provided the platform for India’s first Test victory at Lord’s in 28 years.
