Jadeja dedicated his “man of the match”award to his daughter
Chennai Super Kings (CSK) all-rounder Ravindra Jadeja has dedicated his Man of the Match award against the Kolkata Knight Riders (KKR) to his daughter Nidhyana as today, September 26, 2021, is also celebrated as International Daughters Day around the world.
Chennai Super Kings again went to the top of the Indian Premier League (IPL 2021) points table after defeating Kolkata Knight Riders by 2 wickets in an exciting encounter in Abu Dhabi. Jadeja was given the Player of the Match award for his cameo of 22 runs and one wicket in the match.
Actually, his innings of 22 basically came in one over itself. CSK needed 26 runs to win the match in the last 2 overs chasing 172 runs and Ravindra Jadeja slammed 2 sixes and 2 fours in the crucial over bowled by Prasidh Krishna leaving just 4 runs to win in the last over. Jadeja had earlier picked the wicket of KKR’s top-scorer Rahul Tripathi while giving away just 21 runs in his 4 overs.
Therefore he was picked as the Man of the Match for his dual contribution and later on social media, Jadeja dedicated the award to his daughter Nidhyana with a heartwarming post on Instagram.
