Ravindra Jadeja / This explosive record of Jadeja overtook Ajinkya Rahane, now target on Ashwin

Ravindra Jadeja: Team India's star all-rounder Ravindra Jadeja batted amazingly on Friday. In the first Test match being played against England, KL Rahul took the responsibility of scoring the first run on his shoulders, while when Rahul was out, Ravindra Jadeja took charge. The special thing is that till the end of the second day's play, he was unbeaten and on the third day he can be seen moving towards his century. Ravindra Jadeja has scored three centuries in Test cricket. Now he seems very close to his fourth century. Meanwhile, on the second day Ravindra Jadeja has destroyed Ajinkya Rahane's record and now Ravichandran Ashwin's record is also going to be his target.

Virat Kohli is the active batsman who has scored the most test runs in India.

If we talk about the active players who have scored the most Test runs in India, then former captain Virat Kohli is at number one. Active players means the players who are playing right now. Virat Kohli has so far scored 4144 runs after playing 77 innings in India. We will tell you who is on the second and third position, but before that, know which record of Rahane has been broken by Jadeja.

Rahane left Ajinkya Rahane behind

Actually, Ajinkya Rahane has scored 1644 runs in 50 innings while playing in India. Whereas Ravindra Jadeja has now scored 1673 runs at home i.e. in India. That means he has achieved this feat today itself. For this Jadeja had to bat in 55 innings. Although there are still many batsmen ahead of Jadeja, but Ashwin is closest. Ashwin has scored 1709 runs in 68 innings while playing Test in India. That means, to overtake Ashwin, he now needs only 37 more runs from here. He is currently playing unbeaten on 81 runs. That means, if he completes his century and continues to bat for some more time, then it will not be very difficult for him to break this record.

Jadeja and Ashwin can be seen playing in the entire series

The special thing is that till now BCCI has announced the Indian team for only two tests and both are playing in them. There is full hope that the pair will be seen playing together in the next match also. When the Indian team will be announced for the remaining three Test matches, the selection of these two is almost certain there too. In such a situation, these two players will keep going back and forth throughout the series.

After Virat Kohli, the active batsman who has scored the most test runs in India

Now let us tell you who is the active batsman who has scored the most runs after Virat Kohli. Cheteshwar Pujara comes second among the active players who have scored the most runs in Tests in India, who has 3839 runs in 80 innings. Rohit Sharma has scored 2026 runs in 68 test innings so far. After this is Ashwin, who has scored 1709 runs. Ravindra Jadeja is still at fifth position with 1673 runs.
