Social media was soon flooded with Jadeja’s pictures and one of them was shared by MS Dhoni’s wife, Sakshi.
She heaped praises on Jadeja and posted a photo of him batting with Mahi at the other end. Sakshi captioned the picture “Beast Mode”, hinting at Jadeja’s assault of the ‘Purple Cap’ holder Harshal Patel in the final over.
