Jadeja will be a vital cog in CSK’s batting line-up in IPL 2020 after Suresh Raina pulls himself out of the tournament. He might be asked to bat in the middle-order, unlike previous seasons. And, he is expected to perform well with the ball in UAE where wickets are quite spin-friendly. He will be spotted in action on September 19 against Mumbai Indians in IPL 2020 tournament opener.
