Bowler only Underwood clearly. Yes, "The Deadly" got his name off of exploits on wet pitches, but his record away from home is also pretty well rounded for the most part.
On the other hand, Jadeja can pretty much match him at home, if not slightly ahead. But his output in unhelpful away pitches, and more importantly the lack of that, leaves room for much to be desired.
As bowler, Derek easily while as cricketer Jadeja got this.

Derek also had the issue of great spinners who played against many test teams. In his case it was Pakistan and Windies. Interestingly it was before these two became forces in cricket.

Yeah Underwood is about as far ahead of Jadeja as a bowler as Jadeja is ahead of him as a cricketer. Neither is really Close (who was definitely a better fielder than Jadeja).

Close might had been the better fielder but Klose had the better ball game....
