Speaking on Instagram for Dafa News, Sanjay Manjrekar explained that Krunal Pandya should contribute more to the team’s cause. He said:
The cricketer-turned-commentator added:
Krunal Pandya has managed only 104 runs at an average of 14.85 from eight matches in IPL 2021. The numbers are quite low by his standards.
Trent Boult bowling the final over may not be a good idea: Sanjay Manjrekar
Sanjay Manjrekar also added that MI should keep Jasprit Bumrah and Adam Milne for the death overs instead of Trent Boult.
The left-arm pacer from New Zealand gave away 24 runs in the 19th over during MI’s last match against Chennai Super Kings (CSK). The costly over significantly changed the complexion of the game, with CSK ultimately winning the contest by 20 runs.
Sanjay Manjrekar wants MI to finish Boult’s quota of four overs early against KKR today. He said in this regard:
The two-time defending champions Mumbai Indians, who are currently in fourth place, will be eager to get the better of KKR and bag their first win in the second leg of IPL 2021 tonight.
