Jquery - equivalent to Prototype.js "matchotype" function

Question

I am upgrading my application from prototype.js to jquery.

I have this code (prototype.js):

var el = ... /* this is done */
if (el.match('.pagination a') && el.href) {
  doAjaxStuff()
}

What's the equivalent of Element.match in jquery?
