The right-handed batsman, who played 12 ODIs and three T20 matches for India, recently said that he wants to ask MS Dhoni why he dropped him from the Indian team. Now, the 38-year-old, who was part of the Kolkata Knight Riders team that won their first Indian Premier League title in 2012, has said that he had a fight with then captain Gautam Gambhir at the time, due to which he was dropped from the team. . Due to this, he could not play for this franchise for long. From Anand Bazaar Patrika Manoj Tiwari Said that, “KKR became champion in 2012. At that time I had managed to hit the winning four. I got a chance to play for KKR for one more year. If I had not fought Gambhir in 2013, I probably would have played for two-three more years. This means that the amount I was to receive as per the contract would have increased. The bank balance would have been stronger, but I never thought about it.”
