Sanjay Manjrekar, a former Indian cricketer, expressed his disapproval of Rohit Sharma’s strategic choices in the recent Test match where India faced a defeat against New Zealand in Bengaluru. Manjrekar specifically pointed out Sharma’s hesitation to bring in Ravichandran Ashwin to bowl on the crucial final day of the match. With New Zealand requiring 107 runs for victory, Sharma chose to start with Mohammed Siraj, who unfortunately did not manage to secure any wickets. According to Manjrekar, this decision played a key role in India’s surprising loss, as he believed that introducing Ashwin earlier could have potentially changed the outcome of the game.
