"Sanjay Manjrekar's Tweet Sparks Controversy, Raises Questions About Social Media Etiquette"

Renowned cricket commentator and former Mumbai batsman Sanjay Manjrekar has once again found himself at the center of controversy with his recent tweet about Gautam Gambhir. The Twitter storm, which questioned Gambhir's decision to hold a press conference in Mumbai, left many scratching their heads, wondering why Manjrekar felt it necessary to intervene.

Manjrekar's criticism of Gambhir's press conference appears to be misplaced, according to cricket commentator and friend of Manjrekar, who wished to remain anonymous. "I have known Sanjay for years, and I enjoy speaking to him," the commentator said. "But what he posted on Twitter about Gautam Gambhir just doesn't add up. I've been part of press meets that were far more mundane or volatile than Gambhir's."

Manjrekar's own behavior in the past also raises questions about his social media etiquette. As highlighted by legendary cricketer Sachin Tendulkar, Manjrekar was known to express bold opinions, but often without knowing the facts of a situation. In his book "Playing It My Way," Tendulkar recalled an incident where Manjrekrar made an outlandish comment about his decision to declare during the 1947 Test match.

The commentator feels that Manjrekar's latest tweet is part of a broader problem with social media, where people like to lash out at each other without consideration. "This is not just about Sanjay; it's about the social media curse that we're living under today," he said. "We need to be more mindful and considerate in our words online."

Gambhir has been in hot water lately due to his participation in various Indian Test matches, which have sparked debate across the country. Meanwhile, Manjrekar's comment about Gambhir not knowing how to handle the media rings hollow, given their shared experience as commentators for several years.

The commentator also attributes the outburst to jealousy and regionalism. "I don't think Gautam said anything that merited a scathing tweet from Sanjay," he said. "At a time when we're heading into a crucial series against Australia, this kind of controversy is unwarranted."

As for Manjrekar, his actions have added fuel to the fire, leaving many questioning how someone with his stature and experience can let himself be bullied on social media. One commentator said, "We are our worst enemies; we don't need outsiders to inflict damage." It remains to be seen whether Sanjay Manjrekar can bounce back from this controversy and regain the respect of his peers and fans.
