Sanjay Manjrekar made the news, but for the wrong reasons after he was heard saying that he does not give much attention to players from the north. The former cricketer was on commentary during the India Women vs New Zealand Women match at ICC Women's T20 World Cup 2024 when he made this remark on air. When his fellow commentator spoke of Munish Bali, former Punjab player, Manjrekar apologised for not recognizing him and said, "North ke players te taraf mera zyada dhyaan nahi hota," (Don't have much attention for the players for players of the North). With the video of this going viral on social media, fans shared their thoughts and criticised Manjrekar for making such comments.
