Jadeja, who had never followed anyone on Instagram until Lyon, captioned the photo with the phrase “Following my friend @nath.lyon421 for 24 hours”. He added a few smiley faces on his Insta story.

On Sunday, the southpaw all-rounder, who returned to international cricket after an injury, went on to win a second player of the match award and currently has 17 wickets in two Tests.
Jadeja’s match haul of 10 wickets for 110 runs was his 12th five-wicket haul in tests. His previous best performance came in a 2016 Chennai game against England, going 7-49.
After the game, Jadeja made a subtle jab at the batters from Australia for constantly attempting to sweep him. Six Australian batsmen were dismissed while attempting to sweep in their second essay.
