Ravindra Jadeja’s IPL story began in 2008 with the Rajasthan Royals, the franchise where he won a title in his very first season as a raw 19-year-old. Few careers in the league have swung as wildly since: a one-season ban in 2010 for a contract breach, a then-record $2 million move to Chennai Super Kings in 2012, a brief stint as CSK captain in 2022, and the six and four off the last two balls that sealed the 2023 final. Across 268 IPL matches, Jadeja has become the only player in the tournament’s history to score 3,000-plus runs, take 150-plus wickets and hold 100-plus catches. This page brings together the complete Ravindra Jadeja IPL Stats record — season-by-season numbers for batting and bowling, his auction and retention price history, his headline records, and everything confirmed about his IPL 2027 team and price after the blockbuster trade that sent him back to Rajasthan Royals.

Who Is Ravindra Jadeja?
Ravindrasinh Anirudhsinh Jadeja was born on 6 December 1988 in Navagam Ghed, Jamnagar district, Gujarat. A left-hand middle-order batter and slow left-arm orthodox bowler, he plays domestic cricket for Saurashtra and was the vice-captain of India’s Under-19 World Cup-winning side in Malaysia in 2008. He made his senior India debut in February 2009 and has gone on to become one of the finest all-rounders and fielders of his generation, retiring from T20 internationals after India’s 2024 T20 World Cup win.
His IPL journey has rarely been quiet. After winning the inaugural IPL with Rajasthan Royals in 2008, he was suspended for the entire 2010 season for breaching player guidelines after negotiating with another franchise while under contract. He returned in 2011 with Kochi Tuskers Kerala, then joined Chennai Super Kings in the 2012 auction for $2 million — the costliest buy of that auction. He briefly captained CSK in 2022, taking over from MS Dhoni for the first eight games before stepping down. He has won four IPL titles: 2008 with Rajasthan and 2018, 2021 and 2023 with Chennai.

| 2016–2017 | Gujarat Lions | Played — during CSK’s suspension |
| 2018–2025 | Chennai Super Kings | Played — retained multiple times; captain for the first 8 games of 2022 |
| 2026 | Rajasthan Royals | Played — traded from CSK in November 2025 |
| 2027 | Rajasthan Royals | Retention not officially confirmed |
The defining move of Jadeja’s IPL career came on 15 November 2025, ahead of the IPL 2026 auction, when Chennai traded him — along with Sam Curran (₹2.4 crore) — to Rajasthan Royals in exchange for Sanju Samson (₹18 crore). The BCCI’s official trade announcement confirmed Jadeja’s league fee was revised from ₹18 crore to ₹14 crore under the deal, using the league’s negotiated-decrease provision. It closed an 11-season association with CSK (across two stints) and took him back to the franchise where his IPL career began. The IPL trade window has since become one of the most watched parts of the off-season.
Ravindra Jadeja IPL 2024 Stats

| Bowling | 14 | — | — | — | — | — | 8 | 3/18 | 7.85 |
The 2024 season was a strange split for Jadeja. With the bat he was efficient — 267 runs at a strike rate of 142.78, with a 57* and frequent unbeaten finishes that pushed his average to 44.50. With the ball it was one of his leanest years: just 8 wickets in 14 games at an average of 46.13, though his economy stayed respectable at 7.85. CSK finished fifth and missed the playoffs, and Ruturaj Gaikwad had just taken over the captaincy, with Jadeja settling into a senior support role.

| Bowling | 14 | — | — | — | — | — | 10 | 2/17 | 8.56 |
Promoted to bat at No. 4 and No. 5 in a struggling CSK side, Jadeja produced his highest single-season run tally: 301 runs, including 53* against Mumbai Indians and 77* off 45 balls against Royal Challengers Bengaluru. During this season he became the first player in IPL history to complete the double of 3,000 runs and 150 wickets. The bowling numbers told a harder story — only 10 wickets in 14 games, under-bowled (37.5 overs) behind R. Ashwin and Noor Ahmad, with an economy of 8.56, his highest in years. CSK endured their worst campaign, finishing last.

Back in Rajasthan colours for the first time since 2009, Jadeja played all 14 games in a lower-order role, finishing unbeaten in four innings and closing the season with 45* off 35 against Gujarat Titans. His average of 66.50 reflects how often he saw games through from the death overs. With the ball he bowled only 33 overs across the season — his best spells were 2/8 against Kolkata Knight Riders and 2/21 against Sunrisers Hyderabad — as Rajasthan leaned on Ravi Bishnoi for the main spin workload.

Ravindra Jadeja IPL Highest Score
Jadeja’s highest IPL score is 77 not out, made off 45 balls for Chennai Super Kings against Royal Challengers Bengaluru in IPL 2025. It included 8 fours and 2 sixes and came in a chase CSK narrowly lost — one of the standout individual innings of a poor team season. Remarkably, he has never scored an IPL hundred; his five fifties have come across 18 seasons, with his previous best being 62* against RCB in 2021.
Ravindra Jadeja IPL Wickets and Best Bowling
Jadeja has taken 180 IPL wickets, the most by any left-arm spinner in the tournament’s history. His best bowling figures are 5/16, recorded in IPL 2012. He also owns three four-wicket hauls, including 4/12 in 2014 and 4/11 in 2015. His most productive wicket-taking seasons were 2014 (19 wickets) and 2023 (20 wickets), and his finest economy season was 2019, when he went at just 6.35 across 16 games.

CSK kept him on a ₹7 crore deal through the 2018–2021 cycle before making him their joint-top retention at ₹16 crore for 2022. Note the wording: a retained player is not “bought” — Jadeja’s CSK deals from 2018 onward were retentions, while the 2026 move to Rajasthan was a trade.

Ravindra Jadeja’s IPL Performance Analysis
Jadeja’s IPL career divides neatly into phases. From 2012 to 2015 he was primarily a bowling asset for CSK — 12 to 19 wickets a season at economies around 7.5 — with modest batting returns. The Gujarat Lions years (2016–17) were his weakest with the ball, but 2018–19 rebuilt his reputation as a control spinner: his 6.35 economy in 2019 remains his best full-season figure. The 2020–21 period was his batting peak as a finisher — a 171.85 strike rate in 2020 and the famous 62* and 3/13 against RCB in 2021. The 2022 captaincy season was poor in both disciplines and he handed the role back to Dhoni mid-season. In 2023 he found a late-career balance: 20 wickets, an economy of 7.56, and the title-winning finish in the final. Since 2024 his batting has grown more valuable — 267 and 301 runs in 2024 and 2025, his two highest season tallies — while his bowling workload and penetration have declined: 8 and 10 wickets with economies of 7.85 and 8.56. At Rajasthan in 2026 the pattern held: a reliable lower-order batter (266 runs at 135.03) used sparingly with the ball (33 overs). His fielding and game awareness have never dipped, which is why, at 37, he remains a first-choice all-rounder.
