SA vs IND: Sanjay Manjrekar points out the โstandout playerโ for India in the ODI series against South Africa | Cricket
The article discusses former Indian cricketer Sanjay Manjrekarโs views on potential changes in the Indian cricket team for the second Test against South Africa. Manjrekar suggests giving Mukesh Kumar a chance but expresses concern about the fairness of dropping Prasidh Krishna after just one game. He contrasts the current managementโs approach, emphasizing a fair run for players, with the previous era led by Virat Kohli and Ravi Shastri, which he characterizes as โtrigger-happyโ in making swift changes.
The ex-cricketer notes Prasidh Krishnaโs unique bowling style, describing it as not reliant on hitting the deck hard but rather utilizing height and producing floaty deliveries. He speculates on the current managementโs potential willingness to make changes, acknowledging the contrasting ruthlessness of Kohli and Shastri.
The article also touches on Indiaโs recent defeat in the first Test against South Africa, ending their hopes of winning the series. It highlights Indiaโs struggle against South Africaโs pace attack and mentions Virat Kohliโs aggressive 76 in the second innings. The upcoming second Test in Cape Town is crucial for India to salvage a share of honors in the two-match series.
