Ravindra Jadeja is a complete all-round fielder: Jonty Rhodes

“I am a big fan of Suresh Raina. I enjoyed his playing days but now he has retired,” said Rhodes.

Jonty Rhodes was known for his quick reflexes on the field as the former South African cricketer is considered as one of the best fielders to grace the sport. He has been associated with the Indian Premier League (IPL) as a fielding coach for several teams and is presently with Lucknow Super Giants. But the veteran has picked Ravindra Jadeja as the “complete all-round” fielder in the world currently.

Jadeja has been a lawnmower on the field as batters try not to hit in his area greedy for a single or double. The same has been evident in some of his breathtaking direct throws and stunning catches. Other than Jadeja, another cricketer who set the fielding standards high was Suresh Raina. The former India cricketer was another pick of Rhodes as he termed him as his ‘favourite.’
