Two extremes but a possible truth

When a statement or a proposition swings between two ends of the spectrum - it brings out an emotion or response that's not just of surprise but even absurdity. The expression used for such a statement or situation
is 'paradox' and that's our word of the week. The statement may seem contradictory but may express a possible truth. The expression, paradox, extends itself to a person, thing, or even situation that may seem contradictory. 
The case in point is our cricketer - Ravindra Jadeja. While the world adores the all-round skills of this talented cricketer, the Indian selectors find him a surplus. The headline of Indian Express sums it up wonderfully: The Jadeja paradox.
