Mumbai:
Mumbai Indians all-rounder Kieron Pollard has slammed Sanjay Manjrekar for his on-air comments regarding his batting during an IPL match against Kolkata Knight Riders at Mumbai, claiming that the former India player suffers from "verbal diarrhoea".
Pollard was dismissed for a run-a-ball 17, leaving MI at a precarious 119/5 with less than four overs to go in histeam's chase of 179. In the commentary box, Manjrekar had criticised Pollard, saying that he was only good enough to bat for the last six or seven overs of an innings. Manjrekar was responding to a fellow commentator's query about what Pollard's ideal position in the batting order should be.
Pollard responded angrily to Manjrekar's criticism in a series of tweets. "@sanjaymanjrekar u feel any positive can come out ofyour mouth bcuz u get pay to talk u can continue with yourverbal diarrhea (diarrhoea)..,"
Do you know how I get big so.. about BRAINLESS.. words are very powerful .. once it leaves u can't take it back.. sins of parents fall on...
