Ravindra Jadeja Bags Player Of The Series Award
Meanwhile, Jadeja was declared the player of the series after his terrific performance that saw him take eight wickets and score 104 runs in two Test matches. The all-rounder was delighted with his outings and said, "I could get a chance to bowl more overs (after Ashwin's retirement). But yeah, all in all, we've been doing wonderful work as a team, in terms of batting and bowling. I think we know what brand of cricket we've been playing over the last five, six months. So that's a good sign as a team, that we continue to do it over a long period of time.
"As Gauti bhai (Gambhir) said, I'm at number six now. So I'm thinking more as a proper batsman, and that works for me. In the past, for many years, I've been batting at number eight, number nine, so my mindset was a little different from what I have now. I'm just trying to spend more time in the middle whenever I get a chance to bat. To be honest, I don't think too much about records. I just focus on contributing with both bat and ball to help my team win. I always look forward to do that. I feel if I don't perform with bat and ball, then it doesn't reflect my value as a player. I'm always keen and give my 100 percent. I think this is my third Man of the Series trophy, so yeah, I'm very happy to bring it back home," he said.
