Former India left-arm spinner Dilip Doshi reckons it's high time Ravindra Jadeja is considered the first choice spinner for Team India as he has performed well enough to stop playing second fiddle to Ravichandran Ashwin.

"If there is a provision to play only one spinner, it should be Jadeja because he is most likely to deliver on the line and length basis consistently and keep the runs down as well. The captain can shut the game or at least control the game from one end. Jadeja picks himself automatically and has proved that he should be there [in the side as the first spinner]," Doshi told mid-day here yesterday.
