Jaydev Unadkat slams a journalist for misquoting his ‘car and flat’ statement in English county cricket

India pacer Jaydev Unadkat is set to play for Sussex County next month, continuing his stint in English county cricket after playing a few games for the club last year. The left-arm fast bowler from Saurashtra is enthusiastic about the upcoming season, emphasizing the significant learning🥃 opportunities and growth that county cricket offers.

Unique experience in county cricket

Unadkat recently shared his experience 💟of playing county cricke👍t, highlighting the rich legacy of the teams, passionate supporters, and the unique pitch and weather conditions that differ from India. He mentioned that playing in the UK enhances a cricketer’s skills and teaches self-reliance, as players manage their own daily tasks like cooking and laundry, unlike in India where liaison officers handle these responsibilities.

Journalist misquotes Jaydev Unadkat’s comment

A controversy arose when a journalist, Himanshu Pareek, misquoted Unadkat’s comment about the facilities pr🌟ovided to overseas players in the English county championship. In a post on X, Pareek inaccurately reported that Unadkat claimed he gets “only a car and a flat,” ignoring the context of self-reliance and personal growth that Unadkat had emphasized.

Unadkat promptly addressed the misquote, criticizing Pareek for distorting his words to gain reach and likes on socia♏l media. He clarified the actual statement, highlighting the difference between being “only given a car and a flat” and being provided with these facilities while managing other aspects independeౠntly. Unadkat urged readers to consult the original article for accurate context and emphasized that self-reliance is a valuable lesson learned from playing county cricket.

“Hey @Sports_Himanshu, while you may already know but chose to ignore, there is a difference between you are ONLY given a car & a flat” (your statement) And “while playing in the UK, while you are given a flat & a car (my statement),” wrote Unadkat on X.
