The news reports that veteran Indian all-rounder Ravindra Jadeja is on the brink of becoming the highest wicket-taker in the history of India vs West Indies One Day Internationals (ODIs).

Key details from the report:

  • The Record: Jadeja is currently tied with legendary West Indies fast bowler Courtney Walsh at 44 wickets in IND–WI ODIs. Walsh took 44 wickets across 38 matches between 1985 and 1999, while Jadeja has equaled that tally in 32 matches.

  • The Milestone: Taking just one more wicket against the West Indies makes Jadeja the sole all-time leading wicket-taker in ODIs between the two nations, surpassing Walsh, Kapil Dev (43 wickets), and Anil Kumble (41 wickets).

  • Context: The milestone opportunity comes during India’s ODI series against the West Indies, starting with the match at Greenfield International Stadium in Thiruvananthapuram.

  • Additional Milestone: In addition to the bowling record, Jadeja is also closing in on a rare all-round double. He is 95 runs away from completing 3,000 ODI runs, which would make him only the second Indian cricketer after Kapil Dev to achieve 3,000 runs and 200 wickets in ODI cricket.
