Jadeja's success in the IPL has been phenomenal, as he has taken 138 wickets out of his 200 T20 wickets in the league. Jadeja started his IPL journey with Rajasthan Royals in the inaugural season in 2008, where he played a vital role in the team's title win. However, it was his move to CSK that brought out the best in him. He is one of only two players to have taken more than 100 wickets for CSK in the IPL, the other being Dwayne Bravo.

What makes Jadeja stand out in the IPL is his incredible all-round ability. He is the only player to have scored more than 2,000 runs and taken over 100 wickets in the league. In the current season, Jadeja has been in great form with both bat and ball. He has already picked up 5 wickets and scored 69 runs in the four matches that he has played so far.
