Jadeja was quick to respond to the post and made his intentions clear about representing the Super Kings for another 10 years. Ravindra Jadeja replied:
"10 more to go."
🏻@ChennaiIPL 10 more to go😜💪🏻
Jadeja has been part of Chennai since 2012 after spending two years in Rajasthan Royals in 2008 and 2009. He missed IPL 2010 due to contractual irregularities before plying his trade for now-defunct Kochi Tuskers in IPL 2011.
The all-rounder was roped in by the Chennai side in 2012 for a whopping 2 million dollars. Since then, the 33-year-old cricketer has been an integral part of CSK. In between, Jadeja represented the Gujarat Lions in IPL 2016 and 2017 when Chennai was suspended due to match-fixing allegations.
Overall, Jadeja has scored 2386 runs in 200 IPL matches and has scalped 127 wickets. For Chennai alone, the all-rounder has amassed 1324 runs in 88 innings and picked up 100 wickets.
