Team India's legend Virat Kohli remains in the headlines. Earlier, he was surrounded by criticism for shouldering Australia's debutant Sam Constance, whereas now he is being discussed about the run out of Team India's opener batsman Yashasvi Jaiswal. Actually, when Yashasvi Jaiswal was out, Virat was batting with him. Due to lack of coordination between the two, Jaiswal lost his wicket due to run out. Now there was a fierce debate between two former Indian cricketers Yashasvi Jaiswal and Irfan Pathan regarding this issue.
Sanjay Manjrekar held Virat Kohli responsible for Yashasvi's dismissal and called it a school error. Manjrekar said, 'We are thinking more from Virat Kohli's side. This was a school error. Virat looked back and decided that it was not a run. In reality this call is not from the non-striker, it is from the striker. If Jaiswal had made a bad call, Pat Cummins would have thrown at the bowling end. Because he said no, Yashasvi had no chance.

After this Irfan said, 'The truth of cricket is that if someone cuts. When the ball has gone into the hand of the point fielder, the call is from the non-striker's end but the batsman who is on strike can also refuse many times. Interrupting Irfan, Sanjay said, it is a matter of point. We are talking about the back. After this Irfan said, it is not a matter of truth and lies. You are not understanding what I am talking about. Here we are talking about opinion and not because Virat Kohli is here.
Irfan further said that when Virat Kohli was talked about yesterday, what were we all standing here saying? Sanjay made a strange face on this statement of Irfan. Then he told Irfan that if you do not want to let me talk then it is okay, no problem. He said the point is not a good example. Then Irfan started saying something. Manjrekar got angry about this and asked Irfan to speak. Irfan smiled a little at this and then Sanjay said, tell me. Irfan further said, you are also speaking, we are also speaking.
Manjrekar seemed to completely disagree with Irfan's words. He said, Irfan Pathan should bring some changes in the coaching book. Irfan Pathan's thinking about running between the wickets should be included in the coaching book. If there is a run behind, then the non-striker is also running. Saying this, Sanjay also started smiling.
