Ruckus over Ravindra Jadeja’s feet
You must be wondering why there was a ruckus about Ravindra Jadeja’s feet. The incident is of the 99th over when Jadeja started trying to take a second run and he suddenly stopped in the middle and went back to the striker end. This is usually happening in the match, but the problem in Jadeja’s case was that he had come in the middle of the wicket. According to the rules of cricket, no batsman or bowler or fielder can run between pitch. Seeing Jadeja on the middle pitch, the England players were enraged. English captain Ben Stokes started arguing with them. Then the umpire came and asked Jadeja something.

Why does England difficult to run on the pitch?
Running on the pitch between Ravindra Jadeja is having trouble with the England players because this team has won the toss and chosen the first bowling. Meaning this team will have to play a fourth innings on Edgbaston’s pitch. If for some reason the pitch is spoiled, then it will be difficult to bat in the fourth innings. Let the players play wearing spikes and because of that the pitch can be spoiled.
Jadeja missed a century
Ravindra Jadeja did amazing batting in the first innings of Edgbaston Test but he missed the fifth Test century of his career. He could not understand an excellent bouncer of Josh Tung and the ball hit the gloves of wicketkeeper Jamie Smith. By the way, Jadeja took a big record before being dismissed. He became not only the first Indian but also the first Asian player to take more than 700 Test runs and more than 25 wickets on the land of England. Now Jadeja will also be expected to bowl well.
