Jaydev Niranjan Shah (b. 4 May 1983 in Rajkot, Gujarat) is an Indian cricketer. Jaydev is the son of Niranjan Shah, secretary of the Board of Control for Cricket in India, and represents Saurashtra cricket team in India’s domestic circuit. He has the distinction of captaining Saurashtra to victory in the 2007-08 Ranji one-dayers, the team's first ever national-level title. He was recruited by the Rajasthan Royals for the Indian Premier League 2008 edition, but never played, and has also represented Rajasthan Cricket Association President's XI in the past.[1][2] He is widely regarded as a classic case of nepotism, wherein depite averaging just 28 in FC cricket, he was included in many A tours, not to mention, captained Saurashtra.
