Ajit Agarkar: Playing Ashwin, Jadeja Together In The XI Depends On Edgbaston Conditions
In the Test series against England last year, India preferred playing just the lone specialist spinner in all-rounder Ravindra Jadeja alongside four pacers. It meant that ace off-spinner Ravichandran Ashwin never got a look into the playing eleven throughout the tour as India took a 2-1 lead before the fifth Test in Manchester was rescheduled to July 1-5 at Edgbaston this year.
With India now returning to play the fifth and final Test of the series at Edgbaston, both Ashwin and Jadeja are coming back into Test cricket action after longish breaks. While Ashwin picked two wickets in the final innings of the warm-up match against Leicestershire after recovering from Covid-19, Jadeja made 13 and 56 not out with the bat while picking 3/28 and 1/35 with his left-arm spin.
