Mumbai: Cricket commentator Sanjay Manjrekar’s speech during the IPL cricket series held in Jaipur yesterday against Rajasthan Royals and RCB has caused controversy.
Batting first in this match held in Jaipur, RCB scored 183 runs for the loss of three wickets thanks to Virat Kohli’s brilliant century. After this, the Rajasthan Royals team won by losing only four wickets and scored 189 runs in 19.1 overs.
Jos Buttler scored a century in 58 balls. In this situation, before the start of this match, the Rajasthan team players participated in this match by wearing pink jerseys to emphasize women. The event was held to encourage women to progress in all fields including sports.
During the ceremony, the RCB team captain called a woman and gifted a solar-powered light bulb on behalf of the Rajasthan Royals team. Speaking at the event, cricket commentator Sanjay Manjrekar invited the captains to throw the toss, saying, “Okay, let’s get down to business.” This is the current controversy.
The fact that he is talking about the fact that we will come to a serious matter as a mockery of the Rajasthan Royals team by calling them as a way to give importance to women has caused a lot of anger among the fans. Fans are questioning whether the competitions in which women are participating and the division of women are not important or not.
Fans have demanded that Sanjay Manjurekhar apologize for his derogatory remarks against women and that the BCCI should ban him from commentating from IPL cricket matches. Sanjay Manjurekar, who had already spoken at the Wankhede Stadium during the match against the Mumbai Indians team, had warned fans to behave properly to show respect to Hardik, and now he is caught in the controversy again.
