The T20 World Cup 2024 commenced today, marking the beginning of the Indian team's campaign with a match against Ireland on June 5. Prior to this fixture, India engaged in a practice match against Bangladesh over the weekend. Rishabh Pant's dynamic half-century propelled India to a 60-run victory over Bangladesh. Following Suryakumar Yadav's dismissal in the 17th over, Jadeja entered the crease and swiftly scored on the first ball.
During this match, Tanveer Islam delivered the final ball of the over, pitching a good length outside the off stump, which Jadeja attempted to hit but missed. Liton Das, the wicketkeeper, promptly appealed for a stumping.
The field umpire referred the decision to the third umpire, initiating a review process from multiple angles. Eventually, Jadeja was given a not out decision by the third umpire. Sanjay Manjrekar's commentary during this incident sparked controversy, as he expressed uncertainty about the decision, given his position as Jadeja was at bat.
This moment, captured during Ravindra Jadeja's innings, has garnered significant attention on social media, reigniting the longstanding dispute between Sanjay Manjrekar and Ravindra Jadeja, who have exchanged criticisms on various occasions via social platforms.
