Former cricketer turned commentator Sanjay Manjrekar is known for his controversial statements be it on-air or on social media platforms. One cannot forget his “Bits n Pieces” remark on all-rounder Ravindra Jadeja which made even Jadeja angry, and he responded to him directly on Twitter.
Still i have played twice the number of matches you have played and i m still playing. Learn to respect ppl who ha༺ve achieved.i have heard enough of your verbal diarrhoea.

And now again he said s♊omething which exasperated cricket fans and they reprimanded Manjrekar on twitter.
During the Pink Ball Test between India and Bangladesh, Manjrekar got into a verb🍸al spat with fellow commentator Bhogle.
Harsha passed a suggestion that when it comes to visibili🎀ty of pink ball, pl🐼ayers need to go for a proper post-mortem.
But that vexed Manjrekar, and he went personal at Harsha and said, “Only you need to ask this question Harsha, not us, who have played this game.”
This irritated 🌳fans, and they came out inﷺ support of Bhogle.

Here’s how Twitter reacted:
This is boorish and absolutely unnecessary from . Pity. What does it cost to be civil 👍to a fellow commentator who was asking a very valid question? &q🗹uot;You need to ask." Really.

Low blow from there. When Harsha suggested that batsmen should be asked about the visibility of the pink ball, "You need to ask Harsha. I think for players who have played the game…"
And he's again bragging about 10-15 years of FC cricket.
HB sounds agitated.— TheRandomCricketPhotosGuy (@RandomCr⛄icketP1)
This is unnecessarily condescending and disappointing coming from someone such as who I have respect and affection for. Of course playing the game at the highest level is great. But, as says, no harm at all in asking thos🌄e involved in THIS game.
