    • Sir Jadeja once wanted to make a slit mountain to play as a kid now v all call it mt. everest
    • Leaving for practice at 3pm but the stadium is coming so that sir Jadeja can practice
    • Whenever Sir Jadeja makes an error its an invention and on a daily basis v get plenty of those, all patent pending.
    • Sir Jadeja doesn't run to take the catch but the ball finds him and lands on his hand
    • When Sir Jadeja drives his jeep, his jeep remains still and road moves and wen he goes in to bat the pavilion moves to the wkt.
