Rivaba Jadeja, wife of Indian all-rounder Ravindra Jadeja, has started a huge debate after she said that some cricketers get into “vices” during overseas tours. She said this while speaking in Gujarati at a local event, and the video of her talk has now gone viral on social media. Rivaba said very clearly that her husband has never been part of any such habits, even though many players around him choose to do so when they are away from the public eye.
In her exact words, Rivaba said, “My husband, the cricketer Ravindra Jadeja, has to travel to many countries like London, Dubai and Australia to play cricket. Despite this, to this day, he has never touched or engaged in any kind of vice, because he understands his responsibilities. The rest of the team all indulge in vices, but there is no restriction from their families.”

These lines quickly spread online and surprised fans because she spoke openly about the personal habits of players. Many people reacted with shock, while others said she should have explained what she meant by “vices.” The clip from the event is being widely shared on platforms like X and Instagram.
Ravindra Jadeja and Rivaba Jadeja at the center of a growing online debate
Rivaba Jadeja, who is also a BJP MLA from Jamnagar, said her goal was to show how serious Ravindra Jadeja is about his work. She praised him for staying focused even during long tours in countries like England, UAE, and Australia. Her statement about “the rest of the team” is what created the most discussion, as fans wondered if she was talking about drinking, partying, or other habits players may follow when abroad.
At the same time, many supporters of Ravindra Jadeja came online to defend him and praised Rivaba for showing trust in her husband. Jadeja has always been known for being quiet, disciplined, and extremely dedicated to his game.
Ravindra Jadeja, who turned 37 on December 6, remains one of India’s most important Test players. He will now play for Rajasthan Royals in IPL 2026 after ending his long time with Chennai Super Kings. He retired from T20Is last year along with Rohit Sharma and Virat Kohli after India won the T20 World Cup 2024.
So far, Ravindra Jadeja has not reacted to the viral video. But Rivaba Jadeja’s strong words have opened a big debate about what players do on foreign tours and how much fans should know about their private lives.
