I was just looking to swing hard: Ravindra Jadeja

The Chennai Super Kings needed 13 runs off the final over to win the 2023 Indian Premier League title. Mohit Sharma started off the over brilliantly, conceding just three runs off four deliveries. The equation was brought to ten runs off the final two deliveries. Ravindra Jadeja stayed calm under pressure and smacked the first of the two for a six-over long-on. He followed it up with a four past the fine-leg fielder to lead his team to a five-wicket win.

“I was just thinking I need to swing hard, as much as I can. Where the ball will go, I was not thinking about that, just looking to swing hard. I was backing myself and looking to hit straight because I know Mohit can bowl those slower balls,” said Ravindra Jadeja on Mohit Sharma’s final over.
