The famous cricket pundit, in a tweet, wrote that "With T20 round the corner, players everywhere will be hard at work sharpening their fielding skills."


He was obviously referring to the arrival of the 10th edition of Indian Premier League (IPL).



Jadeja replied to the tweet, and conceded that he is in fact fine tuning his fielding skills.



Yesterday, Gujarat Lions owner Keshav Bansal stated the very fact.


"Jadeja has been in great form and doing well for the country in the ongoing test series against Australia. He was rewarded by becoming world number one bowler in the recently announced ICC rankings", Bansal told reporters in Rajkot.


Jadeja is regarded as one of the best Indian fielders, and his form – batting, bowling and fielding – will be crucial to the success of the Lions.


"He has been in great rhythm and expectations are high from the team that he would deliver his best. His performance would be the key for team's success in IPL-10," Bansal added.


The 10th edition of the cash-rich IPL will starts on April 5.
