Champions Trophy: Ravindra Jadeja Complete Bowling & Batting Records, Best Moments, and Achievements

In just under a week, eight sides will battle it out to win the 2025 Champions Trophy. Rohit Sharma-led team India will look to win the title after winning the T20 World Cup last year. Ravindra Jadeja will be playing his 200th ODI when he takes to the field during the tournament. 

Ravindra Jadeja’s Bowling and Batting records in ODI format suggest the importance he has in the team. Jadeja was a key part of Dhoni’s team that won the title in 2013 as he was the top wicket taker with 12 scalps. Apart from his bowling and batting, Jadeja is also a great fielder. 

The upcoming tournament might be the final time the world gets to witness Jadeja playing in an ICC event. The veteran Indian star will want to help India achieve their second world title in a space of eight months. 

Here is Ravindra Jadeja’s complete record in Champions Trophy 

Ravindra Jadeja has rarely got a chance to bat in Champions Trophy. The left-handed batter has played just three innings and scored 62 runs so far. His best innings came during the 2013 tournament where he scored 47 not out in the first match against South Africa. Jadeja got his runs off just 29 runs and got India to a huge total and helped them win the match. 

Jadeja’s next turn to bat came in 2017 where he scored 15 runs in the finals of the tournament. Fans remember the moment when Hardik Pandya, who was batting well, was run-out after a mix-up in the middle with Jadeja. Since then the veteran Indian star has picked up his batting skills and is a huge contributor for the team. 

Bowling record of Ravindra Jadeja

In 2013, Ravindra Jadeja was the leading wickettaker in the Champions Trophy with 12 scalps. His rich vein of form with the ball began with 2/31 against South Africa. This was followed by his first fif in ODI cricket, which came against the West Indies in the Oval. Jadeja bowled 10 overs and picked 5/36 as India won the game. 

In the next two games against Pakistan and Sri Lanka, MS Dhoni saw his trump card pick three wickets. In the rain-shortened final game against England, Jadeja gave a bowling masterclass, picking 2/24 from four overs. His wickets included Ian Bell and Jos Buttler in key stages of the game. 

In 2017, Jadeja picked just four wickets, with his best of 2/43 coming in the league match against Pakistan. In the finals, the left-arm spinner was hit for 67 runs from his eight overs as Pakistan won the game by 180 runs. 

How will Ravindra Jadeja perform in the Champions Trophy 2025?

India’s veteran star has been in thick vein of form as far as the bowling is concerned. Jadeja picked six wickets from two games in the recent ODI series against England. One can expect Jadeja to play a key role with the ball during the upcoming Champions Trophy tournament. The 36-year-old picked seven wickets from four games in the 2018 Asia Cup, which was held in Dubai, that India won under Rohit Sharma’s captaincy.
