The 32-year-old Jadeja first took a catch to send back Manan Vohra off Sam Curran. Then in the 14th over of the RR innings, he took a well-judged catch to dismiss Riyan Parag off Moeen Ali. It was followed up by the Chris Moris’ catch again of the same bowler. Then he caught Unadkat off the bowling of Shardul Thakur.
After taking the catch of Unadkat, the Indian all-rounder pointed to Mahendra Singh Dhoni and gestured a hilarious phone-call celebration while facing the dug-out.
CSK will next face Kolkata Knight Riders. The match will be played at Wankhede Stadium in Mumbai April 21.
