Ravindra Jadeja shares Sanjay Manjrekar’s picture, terms him a ‘dear friend’

India all-rounder Ravindra Jadeja tweeted a picture of commentator Sanjay Manjrekar on Thursday late evening taking social media to a frenzy.

Jadeja posted a picture that apparently seemed to be clicked from a TV screen. He captioned the picture, “Watching my dear friend on screen @sanjaymanjrekar”

The southpaw has had a controversial history with the commentator since the 2019 World Cup when Manjrekar had termed Jadeja as a ‘bits and pieces cricket’.

Jadeja did not take the comment lightly and hit back at Manjrekar with a tweet, “Still I have played twice the number of matches you have played and I am still playing. Learn to respect people who have achieved. I have heard enough of your verbal diarrhea.”

Subsequently, after Jadeja’s excellent performance against New Zealand in the semi-final, which India lost by a close margin, Manjrekar had said “By bits and pieces of sheer brilliance, he’s ripped me apart on all fronts,” trying to compensate for his earlier comment.

To add to the drama, after the recent Asia Cup 2022 match between India and Pakistan, Manjrekar asked Jadeja, on air, if he was okay to talk to him for broadcasters Star Sports.

Jadeja had replied, “Absolutely, I don’t have any problem.”

Jadeja who is currently out of action owing to a knee injury, shared this post, the context of which is not yet completely known.

However, the Twitterati went berserk with the tweet.

One of the users commented, “What did I just see?”

Another user commented, “Ye kyun tweet kiya isne? (Why did he tweet this?)

One of the users commented, “Multiverse is real,” taking a dig at the comment.

Premier League: Ben Mee's header helps Burnley register win over Crystal Palace

Ben Mee marked his 300th league appearance for Burnley by clinching a 1-0 victory at Crystal Palace on Monday and keeping his team in an unexpected push for European qualification. A three-year wait for a goal ended for Mee with a header from Ashley Westwood’s free kick in the 62nd minute, moving Burnley up to eighth in the English Premier League — seven points from the Champions League places with six games to go. Burnley was without Jay Rodriguez — the match-winner against Watford on Thursday — and due to a lack of options Sean Dyche could replace him with only defender Erik Pieters. “Coming into the night with a depleted squad, with only one senior boy on the bench, and playing like we did tonight, it shows the character, it shows we’re together," Mee told Amazon Prime. “To get a goal is nice. I’ve had chances cleared off the line or good saves so it’s nice to finally get one in. "It wasn’t a great ball from Westy (Westwood), it wasn’t what we worked on but you’ve got...

England vs New Zealand: Joe Root aims for Black Caps and India sweep ahead of Ashes

Joe Root believes there will be no better way for England to prepare to regain the Ashes in Australia later this year than by completing a home clean sweep of New Zealand and India. The England captain will lead his side in the first of a two-match series against New Zealand at Lord's on Wednesday, with five more Tests against India before the English season is finished. India, top of the Test rankings, and second-placed New Zealand will contest the inaugural World Test Championship final at Southampton, southern England, later this month. England, and many of their supporters, have long given the impression that matches against arch-rivals Australia are the only Tests that really count, with everything else a 'warm-up'. But such a viewpoint was labelled "limited, narrow and delusional" by former England captain Mike Atherton in The Times on Tuesday. Root, however, saw no conflict between England's short and long-term goals. "There's going to b...
