On the morning of the first Test against West Indies in Ahmedabad, Ravindra Jadeja shared his happiness on being given this massive role, and about carrying the confidence he had during the England tour into this fresh season. Jadeja shared all his views in a video shared by BCCI.

They didn’t say anything to me. I just saw VC written next to my name when the team was announced. End of the day, whatever experience you have to share, you do it for the team,” Jadeja said in the video by BCCI.

They gave me the respect. The captain, the coach, and the management have decided to give me the responsibility. Whenever the team needs anything regarding team planning or whatever, I am always happy to contribute,” he added.

 “As a player, I gain my confidence. Whenever you perform in England, you get the confidence. Hopefully, I can continue and take forward that confidence into this series, score some runs and some wickets,” he said.
