Sanjay Manjrekar encountered an awkward situation when he was not informed about his father Vijay Manjrekar’s achievements.
When asked who was India’s first keeper-batter to score a century, Manjrekar had no answer. But, it was shocking because his father had achieved this feat to become first Indian wicketkeeper to score a hundred in 1953.
Sanjay who is always critical of cricketers’ gameplay, was in a tough situation this time.
Sanjay further jokingly added that his father was a bad cricketer on Star Sports before the commencement of Day 3 of the IND vs SA 1st Test in Centurion.
