Sanjay Manjrekar has openly criticized Ravindra Jadeja for what he perceived as a lack of tactical awareness during the 1st Test match against England, where India lost by 31 runs. Manjrekar focused on Jadeja’s inability to exploit the pitch conditions, particularly the rough areas, which could have aided him on the final day. Jadeja’s performance included taking only one wicket and conceding 172 runs in 47 overs across both innings. Manjrekar emphasized that more was expected from a player with Jadeja’s experience and suggested a more strategic approach, particularly in bowling to batsmen like Ben Duckett. The analyst implied that Jadeja’s delayed strategy negatively impacted the team.
