Ravindra Jadeja Bat Failed In Gauge Test: Ravindra Jadeja’s bat failed in the initial gauge Test in the match played between Chennai Super Kings and Sunrisers Hyderabad in IPL 2025. When Jadeja came to bat at number 4, the umpire examined his bat twice as soon as he came to his ground, but both times his bat failed in this Test, due to which he had to get a second bat.
Not only this, Jadeja also beat his bat on the field twice but even after that his bat failed in the gauge test. When the umpires were checking Jadeja’s bat, Ishaan Kishan also stood near him and he was seen enjoying Jadeja. However, finally the substitute Shreyas Gopal brought the replacement bat and the changed bat again passed through the gauge. This time Jadeja’s bat passed in the test.
Let us know that in this season, every IPL batsman will have to go through the gauge test of the bat before taking the guard. The fourth umpire will examine the bat of the openers before landing in the field, but every batsman after that will have to cross the bat gauge used by the field umpires. The dimensions of the valid bat are printed on the triangle -shaped plastic gauge: depth 2.68 inches, width 4.33 inches, shore 1.61 inches. The curve or bulge that appears on the lower non-hitting side of the bat should be within 0.20 inches.
