Sanjay Manjrekar wants to see this bowler playing in the second test in place of Prasidh Krishna
Former cricketer Sanjay Manjrekar has demanded the inclusion of fast bowler Mukesh Kumar in the Indian team in the second Test match against South Africa at Newlands, Cape Town. Mukesh, who made his Test debut last year against West Indies at the Queen’s Park Oval in Port of Spain, Trinidad, managed to take one wicket there. Manjrekar advised not to include Shardul Thakur and Prasidh Krishna together in the playing XI and also stressed on making a balanced combination. Highlighting Mukesh’s ability to adapt to challenging situations and suggesting strategic changes. 58-year-old Manjrekar said that fast bowler Mukesh Kumar can prove to be important for Team India in the upcoming match. Mukesh Kumar should get a chance in the second test match- Sanjay Manjrekar Sanjay Manjrekar was quoted as saying by ESPNcricinfo, “From what we have seen in the first Test, I do not expect Shardul Thakur and Prasidh Krishna to play together in the second Test. There will definitely be a change, if Ravindra Jadeja is fit then it will strengthen our batting. So, if Mukesh Kumar is bowling well in the nets, he can be brought in. He is more suitable for these circumstances.” India are trailing 0-1 in the series after an innings defeat in the opening Test at the SuperSport Park in Centurion. Manjrekar suggested that, despite the failure in the first Test, captain Rohit Sharma and coach Rahul Dravid could be seen supporting Yashasvi Jaiswal. Expressing hope of a better pitch in Cape Town, this experienced player has expressed hope of an exciting match in the upcoming match. Sanjay Manjrekar further said, “Since it is a two-match series, you are sometimes forced to make some changes. However, I do not think India will make any major changes in their batting lineup. Rohit Sharma and Rahul Dravid must have seen how Yashasvi Jaiswal played and they will continue to support him. When it comes to batting you can’t change things with selection. You can just hope that the pitch is a little easier to bat on.” Also read: David Warner’s baggy green cap not found, forced to play Sydney Test without it
Sanjay Manjrekar’s big reaction regarding Prasidh Krishna, said- throwing him out after just one match…
Manjrekar believes that the team management will give Prasidh another chance. Sanjay Manjrekar and Prasidh Krishna (Image Source: Indian fast bowler Prasidh Krishna made his debut in the first test against South Africa, but he could not do anything special in his debut test. In the bowling spell of 20 overs, Prasidh spent 93 runs and took only 1 wicket. Despite his poor performance, former India batsman Sanjay Manjrekar believes that it would not be right to drop Prasidh after just one match. Sanjay Manjrekar said on Cricinfo that it would be a bit difficult to drop Prasidh Krishna after just one match. If you watch him, he’s not someone who hits the ball hard. He uses his height. Everything he pitches is a little floaty. The only balls that have some speed and power are the short balls. Management will give him another chance- Sanjay Manjrekar He believes that the team management led by Rahul Dravid will give Prasidh another chance. However, he also said that if Ravi Shastri and Virat Kohli were still at the helm of the Test team, they would have taken the tough decision of dropping the bowler. He continued by saying that if Mukesh Kumar plays, I don’t think anyone will be unhappy with it. They will see how Mukesh is bowling in the nets and then decide if it is a good fit for Prasidh Krishna. Because this is something that the team management cares about. He said that he can give another chance. But this is a two-match series, so we may be willing to make changes. read this also- ‘One cannot depend on one bowler’, Rohit Sharma angry at the bowlers after the defeat in Centurion
