Ravindra Jadeja's love for horse riding

Jadeja's love for horse riding developed when he visited his friend's place. During an innterview with Hindustan Times, he said, "In life, due to cricket practice, I could never spend enough time at my farmhouse, but I am glad I got the chance in the last few months. I used to go to my friend's place for riding horses and gradually, I got interested in horses and horse breeding. I bought a few horses in 2010 for my farmhouse and have been enjoying taking care of them. I just breed for myself and don't intend to sell them." 

Meanwhile, The five-time champions will face the Rajasthan Royals (RR) at the Arun Jaitley Stadium in Delhi on Tuesday, May 20. They are currently at the bottom of the points table, with three wins and nine losses in 12 matches.
