Former India cricketer-turned-commentator Sanjay Manjrekar is always on target of the trolls. From getting criticized for his on-air commentary and tweets, Twitter users never miss an opportunity on taking a jibe at him.

Sanjay believes the hate tweets only show how passionate people are towards cricket. He also said he has made a living out of this game, so the negativity doesn't bother him.

"I don’t see that as hate at all. It’s the unbounded passion that fans have for the game & it’s players. So, you get your fair share of excessive love & hate too. This passion, don’t forget, also makes Indian cricket a billion-dollar industry in which people like me make a living," he responded.

Ravindra Jadeja and Kieron Pollard have blasted Manjrekar on social media for his on-air comments on them.
