About Ajay Jadeja
Ajay Jadeja is a former India batter known for his flamboyant style, brilliant fielding and charisma, and today a popular cricket analyst and mentor. Born in 1971 into the Jamnagar royal family, he is related to the famous cricketing princes Ranjitsinhji and Duleepsinhji. He played 196 ODIs and 15 Tests for India between 1992 and 2000 and occasionally captained the side.
Career highlights
Ajay was a regular in India’s one-day team through the 1990s and was part of the squad that won the 1995 Asia Cup. He is especially remembered for a blistering late assault on Pakistan’s bowlers in the 1996 World Cup quarter-final in Bengaluru, one of the most famous innings of that tournament, and for his exceptional fielding.
In 2000 the BCCI banned him in connection with the match-fixing inquiry; a Delhi court lifted the ban in 2003, though he did not play for India again. He went on to work as a coach and commentator, and in 2023 he mentored Afghanistan during their impressive World Cup campaign, winning praise for his role.
