IND vs SL LIVE: Shane Warne’s BIG FIND at RR Ravindra Jadeja gives fitting tribute to legend with record CENTURY – In what is a fitting tribute to legendary cricketer Shane Warne, who departed for heavenly above on Friday, his apprentice Ravindra Jadeja slammed a sensational century against Sri Lanka on Saturday. Follow IND vs SL Live updates on Insidesport.

“It was a shocking news. The moment I heard it, I was so sad and I wasn’t feeling well. I found it difficult to believe that this can be true,” Jadeja said when asked about his time spent with Warne

When he first met Warne, it was more like a kid in a candy store and meeting a childhood hero.

“When I first met him in 2008, he was already a legend and I couldn’t believe that I would be playing alongside a player of Shane Warne’s stature,” said Jadeja after the second day’s play in the first Test against Sri Lanka

“We were just coming out of our U-19s and to share the dressing room with Warne was a huge thing for youngsters like us. He gave me a huge platform and post U-19, it was a direct entry into the IPL,” said Jadeja, expressing his gratitude.

How did Jadeja give tribute to Warne? Notably, Jadeja rose to fame back whilst playing for Rajasthan Royals, under the captaincy of Warne. The Australian leg-spinner always seemed to have enormous faith on the-then budding youngster, and a day after his demise, the student has given a tribute to the master.

Jadeja recently made a comeback after recovering from an injury, and looked good with both the bat and the ball in the recently-concluded three-match T20I series. Now, he has started the Test series with a bang, bringing up only his second Test century in the match at Mohali.
