With IPL 2021 suspended for the time being, Indian all-rounder Ravindra Jadeja is making the most of his time off cricket. From riding his horses to relaxing in his farmhouse to regularly working out, Jadeja is keeping himself in a positive frame of mind ahead of his departure to England for the all-important World Test Championship (WTC) final. The southpaw has kept his fans updated about his daily activities through social media.

Ravindra Jadeja sharpens horseriding skills ahead of departure to England for WTC final

On Thursday, Ravindra Jadeja took to Instagram and shared a video of himself where he is seen improving his horseriding skills. In the video, Ravindra Jadeja is seen in an all-black outfit as he rides his horse with panache. He captioned the post, "I Sharpen my riding skills #horseriding #feelinggood". Here's a look at the latest Ravindra Jadeja Instagram post.

The Ravindra Jadeja house is located in Jamnagar and is reportedly a 4-storey bungalow with a farm, which explains how Jadeja does his horse-riding often. Meanwhile, Ravindra Jadeja is all set to make a comeback to the international fold as he has been named in the India squad for WTC Final 2021 which will be followed by a five-match India vs England 2021 Test series. The Saurashtra-based all-rounder had sustained a thumb injury during India's tour of Australia which eventually ruled him out for six weeks. Subsequently, Jadeja missed the four-match Test series against England but made a scintillating comeback in the IPL 2021 by putting in several match-winning performances for the MS Dhoni-led CSK team.
