He Needs To Contribute With The Bat: Sanjay Manjrekar Urges Selectors To Look Beyond Bharat
World Test Championship: Former Indian cricketer Sanjay Manjrekar has raised concerns over the batting performances of wicketkeeper K.S. Bharat in the first two Tests against England and urged selectors to look beyond him. In the first two matches, Bharat scored 102 runs with the highest score of 41 runs.
Manjrekar expressed disappointment with Bharat's inability to make significant batting contributions despite being given opportunities in the Test arena. Bharat, who replaced Ishan Kishan during the Test series against South Africa, has failed to capitalize on his chances, prompting Manjrekar to urge the Indian selectors to consider alternatives.
"It's a lot like he’s playing his first series,” said Manjrekar to ESPNcricinfo. “He’s played before, he played all four Test matches against Australia and Rishabh Pant is due to come any time soon. So, I am not sure whether it is worthwhile and makes sense to keep investing in K.S. Bharat.
