Well, Manjrekar has now bore the brunt of Ganguly. The former India captain did not clearly mention Manjrekar’s name in his tweet but the turn of events made it more or less clear. It started when Manjrekar took to Twitter to take a sly dig at Ganguly. Manjrekar took a shot at Sourav Ganguly not letting other commentators speak much in the commentary box, writing:

“Always happy when Sourav Ganguly is in commentary. You get to relax not just in between commentary stints but during it too.?”

But Manjrekar had clearly locked horns with the wrong person and Sourav Ganguly made him realise that. Ganguly, who guided India to the final of the 2003 World Cup, mercilessly trolled Manjrekar. Ganguly said that Manjrekar’s tweets are as meaningless as his batting, writing:
