Sanjay Manjrekar on Ravindra Jadeja : The T20 World Cup 2024 has started from today. India will begin their World Cup campaign against Ireland on June 5. India played a warm-up match against Bangladesh on Saturday. Rishabh Pant's half-century helped India beat Bangladesh by 60 runs.
After Suryakumar Yadav was dismissed in the 17th over of the match, Jadeja came into bat and saved the first ball. Sanjay Manjrekar, who was doing commentary, made a statement, which is being discussed. Tanvir Islam was bowling in this match and he bowled the last ball of the over on a short of good length outside the off stump, on which Jadeja swiped but he did not understand this ball.
Wicketkeeper Liton Das then sent the bails flying and appealed for a stumping. The on-field umpires turned to the third umpire and then the process of watching the replays from different angles began. Jadeja was eventually given not out after the third umpire saw replays from multiple angles. Sanjay Manjrekar, who was commentating during the entire incident, said something like this, which has now created a controversy.
