World Cup 2019: Five players who deserved more chances

#3 Ravindra Jadeja (India)

Ravindra Jadeja has been the talk of town after his all-around effort versus New Zealand was a great rebuke to commentator Sanjay Manjrekar's criticism towards him. Jadeja showed his batting skills as he smashed a 59-ball 77 under immense pressure which went in vain in the end.

Moreover, he was top notch with the ball as he rushed through his 10 overs conceding just 34 runs and picking up 1 wicket. He was his usual electric self on the field and has saved 41 runs, mostly as a substitute, and was clearly the best fielder in the entire tournament.

Such enigmatic presence is certainly desired by the Indian side and he could have been a valuable addition on slow wickets like the Rose Bowl and would have been a better alternative for players like Dinesh Karthik and Kedar Jadhav who often underperformed.

He picked up 2 wickets and scored 77 runs in 2 matches that he played and 'Sir' Jadeja certainly deserved more chances than he got.
