Sanjay Manjrekar became a victim of social media trolls once again after he tweeted one of his pictures from the ongoing Day-Night Test between India and Bangladesh at Eden Gardens. cricketer turned commentator Sanjay Manjrekar wrote “Love my job!” and captioned the photograph on Twitter.
However, some cricket fans who aren’t much impressed with Sanjay Manjrekar’s commentary came up with hilarious memes in reply to the former India batsman’s tweet. “Therefore, we love the mute button on our TV remote,” a user said on Twitter.
“But we all love you in bits and pieces,” said another user, reminding Manjrekar of the comment that he made on India’s all-rounder Ravindra Jadeja.
During the 2019 World Cup in the UK, Manjrekar was quoted as saying by IANS: “I am not a big fan of bits and pieces players which Jadeja is at this point in his career in 50-over cricket. In Test matches, he is a pure bowler. But in 50-over cricket, I would rather have a batsman and a spinner.”
While fans criticized Manjrekar for his “bits and pieces” remark, Jadeja too didn’t take much time to hit back. The all-rounder took to Twitter to express his anger over the criticism he received from the former India batsman.
“Still I have played twice the number of matches you have played and I’m still playing. Learn to respect people who have achieved. I have heard enough of your verbal diarrhea.@sanjaymanjrekar,” Jadeja had tweeted.
Under the captaincy of Virat Kohli, India is currently playing Bangladesh in their first-ever pink-ball Test – the second match of the two-Test series in Kolkata.
