Kevin Pietersen reminded Sanjay Manjrekar of his prediction before the Indian Premier Leauge (IPL) 2020 auction. Sanjay was confident about West Indian Kesrick Williams being an attraction in the auction.
But Pietersen had already tweeted that he found nothing impressive about the West Indies pacer apart from his celebration. After India vs West Indies T20I series where Williams was in talks for his clash with Indian captain Virat Kohli, Manjrekar had tweeted, “Go for Kesrick Williams guys. Perfect bowler for IPL conditions. ”

But when a fan tagged and asked Pietersen if Williams is good for Royal Challengers Bangalore, he replied, “Completely disagree. He’s not good enough! He has nothing special apart from his celebration…”
Now, after Williams failed to make a mark in IPL auction, KP reminded Manjrekar of his tweet.
The cricketer-turned-commentator was praising Nicholas Pooran after his 89 off just 64 balls against India in the third ODI. Kevin pointed out the commentator's curse and how it affected Williams.
“Nicholas Pooran. ????????????????????????????,” wrote Sanjay. To which, Pietersen responded, "How did Williams go in auction?!".
