Ravindra Jadeja has been one of the finest test batters for India in last few years and he has taken India out of trouble on numerous occasions. However, in the 5th Test match at Dharamsala, he could not get going though rest of the batters fired before him, and ended up losing his wicket on 15 off 60 balls.

One of the difference between Ravindra Jadeja and other batters was the intent. All the Indian batters from Rohit Sharma to Sarfaraz Khan, played aggressively but Jadeja went into his shell and ultimately was trapped infront.

Tom Hartley was the bowler and he pitched on a length , around off. The ball turned into Jadeja and he tried to tuck it towards the leg side. However, he missed the ball and got hit on the pad which led to a big appeal from English players and umpire eventually raised his finger.

Jadeja did take a review but the Ball Tracking showed three reds and Hartley got his first wicket of the 5th Test. It was the seventh wicket for India and Hartley soon got the wicket of Ashwin as well, to stage a mini-comeback for England after being belted all over the park by Indian batters.
