Cricket delivers excitement both on and off the field, with banter and controversies often stealing the spotlight. One such saga is the Jadeja and Manjrekar equation. In the last six years, their relationship came under scrutiny after Manjrekar’s remark over the Indian spinner.

Six years later, the tables have turned. Former Indian cricketer Sanjay Manjrekar shared a cheeky post holding Jadeja’s jersey turned heads on social media.

Sanjay Manjrekar’s Cheeky Post Involving Jadeja

Over the last few years, the buzz over the relationship between Sanjay Manjrekar and Ravindra Jadeja has created a different hype. His dig on Jadeja in 2019 is still fresh in fans’ memories. He also questioned Jadeja’s ability as a complete all-rounder in the 50-over format. Their social media clashes quickly grabbed headlines, fueling the ongoing buzz around their dynamic.

But 6 years later, things seem different. Former indian cricketer Sanjay Manjrekar’s recent social media post is an example of that. On his social media handle, he posted a picture of himself holding Ravindra Jadeja’s Team India jersey with his name and jersey number 8.

Along with that, he wrote a cheeky caption saying, “Sporting No. 8 with a smile”. The moment he shared it, fans were stunned, and the post spread like wildfire.



What Was The ‘Bits and Pieces’ vs Verbal Diarrhoea’ Saga?

Cricket legends often critique current players, but Sanjay Manjrekar’s 2019 remark on Ravindra Jadeja hit differently. He sparked controversy by calling Jadeja a ‘bits and pieces’ player. And Jadeja bounced back with a heated reply. That grabbed the attention.

“I am not a big fan of bits-and-pieces players, which Jadeja is at this point of 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.” Manjrekar said in 2019.

“Still, I have played twice the number of matches you have played, and I'm still playing. Learn to respect ppl who have achieved. I have heard enough of your verbal diarrhoea.” Jadeja replied back to him.

After the heated argument, concerns were raised over the relationship between these two Indian stars. A few years later, Majrekar praised Jadeja and also called him his ‘favourite player’. But his recent post has put this all aside and grabbed the limelight.
