After the second day's game was over, Jadeja told reporters, "It is special because before I reached 80 and 90, I was dismissed. Today I was not worried and wanted to play some kind of loose shot. I talked to Umesh and Shami and told myself that I have to play till the century is over." 

"When you are not playing regularly, there is pressure. You want to take advantage of every opportunity. I thought this in England too. My batting and bowling were good in the Asia Cup. ", he added.

In the last one month, Jadeja did not only well in the only Test (fifth and final) played in England but also returned to form in ODIs.
