New Delhi. Former Indian cricketer and commentator Sanjay Manjrekar is known for openly speaking. There is a dispute about his statement many times. Once again he has given his impeccable opinion. Sanjay has questioned Punjab Kings (PBKS) star batsman Glenn Maxwell. He says that this player has not yet proved his ability in the Indian Premier League (IPL) 2025. Manjrekar compared his form to 'Hailey Ka Clate' which is seen every 76 years.
During the run chase against Rajasthan Royals on 5 April, when PBKs lost the wickets early, Maxwell came to bat in the seventh over. He hit a six and three fours but could not move the innings forward. He was dismissed by Sri Lankan spinner Mahesh Phagna. Manjrekar was not happy with Maxwell's batting and gave an example of astronomy to explain the instability of IPL career.
Manjrekar said on Geographstar, “Haley's comet revolves around the sun and is visible from the Earth every 75 years. Similarly, Glenn Maxwell plays a good match in 75 matches. It was last seen in 1986 and now it will be seen in 2061. The same is the case of Maxwell's batting. Glenn Maxwell Cricket is a comed.”
