Raipur: Who can forget commentator Sanjay Majrekar facing the heat on social space for calling Ravindra Jadeja a ‘bits and pieces’ player during the 2019 World Cup? Since then, they have had some chemistry in social space. Jadeja and Manjrekar also shared an uneasy on-air interaction in August during the post-match interview of India vs Pakistan Asia Cup encounter where the allrounder played a pivotal role to guide the Men in Blue to victory. Manjrekar had asked: “First question – You are ok to talk to me? Right, Jaddu?” Jadeja replied: “Yeah, yeah (laughs). Absolutely!!”Also Read – Ravindra Jadeja to Play For CSK in IPL 2023? 4-Time Champions' Tweet Spawns Speculations

Jadeja’s absence from the squad will be a big blow to Team India during their World Cup campaign in Australia. Jadeja’s rocket-like direct throws, left-arm spin and left-handed batting will be something that the squad will miss out.
