Indian all-rounder Kedar Jadhav had a fair share of ups and downs in his cricketing career. 

He has played a significant role in the Indian team since his debut in 2014. For a few months, the veteran cricketer has been out of the team. He wasn’t able to cash the limited opportunities provided to him to secure a position in the National team. 

Considering the age of Jadhav (35 years), it would be difficult for him to make a comeback in the Indian cricket team.

Jadhav has been an integral part of IPL since 2010. He made his IPL debut for Delhi Capitals and then went on to play for teams like Royal Challengers Bangalore (RCB) and Chennai Super Kings (CSK). 

Kedar was picked by CSK in 2018 after RCB released him the previous year. Though he didn’t get many opportunities to showcase his talent for CSK in 2018, he got an opportunity to lift the IPL trophy for the first time. CSK won the tournament for the third time in 2018.

The 35-year-old revealed, “Major difference between playing for RCB in Bengaluru and for CSK in Chennai is the captain who backs you and gives you the opportunities and has the confidence and faith in you.”

He further added, “If you know as a player your captain (MS Dhoni) backs you and gives you more than enough opportunities, there is no better feeling. You can see the happiness on his face when you perform, he’s happy for you.” 

Seeing such remarks, one can say that Kedar Jadhav has indirectly held Indian skipper Virat Kohli responsible for his ending career.
