SANJAY MANJREKAR CALLS AMBATI RAYUDU, PIYUSH CHAWLA 'LOW PROFILE' CRICKETERS; TWITTER ANGRY TROLLS HIM BRUTALLY!
Home > News Shots > SportsFormer India cricketer-turned-commentator Sanjay Manjrekar is again in the news. He has often made headlines in the past due his comments and is again grabbing the spotlight this time too.
In the opening match of IPL 2020, Manjrekar called Chennai Super Kings' (CSK) Piyush Chawla and Ambati Rayudu 'pretty low profile cricketers'. He posted a tweet saying, "So happy for two pretty low profile cricketers Piyush Chawla and Ambati Rayudu. Chawla was sensational with the ball. Bowled the 5th & 16th over too. Rayudu..well...one of the best IPL innings from him based on quality of shots played! Well done CSK! #IPL2020".
Minutes after the post went viral, fans were unimpressed with Manjrekar's remark and trolled him back. Looking into both the cricketers career, Chawla has been part of two World Cup-winning teams while Rayudu has played 55 ODIs.
Earlier this month, Manjrekar was not selected by BCCI for IPL 2020; they were in no mood to bring him back. Meanwhile, both Rayudu and Chawla played an important role in CSK's opening game yesterday. Rayudu made a crucial 115-run partnership with Faf du Plessis, who remained unbeaten on 58. Chawla delivered an economical spell of 4-0-21-1.
