A current interview of former India cricketer Manoj Tiwary went viral on web wherein he made some relentless assault at present nationwide staff head coach Gautam Gambhir. Tiwary even went on to name Gambhir a ‘hypocrite’, owing to his current outcomes with the Indian staff, significantly the 3-0 clear sweep to New Zealand at house and 1-3 loss towards Australia Down Beneath. Whereas reacting to the scathing assault focused at Gambhir, one other ex-India participant Aakash Chopra criticised Tiwari. Now, Tiwari has issued a clarification, giving a direct reply to Chopra on social media.
“I was at my coaching centre, sitting there after practice. The local media came there to take my interview. We spoke for 20-25 minutes, and you know that when these people (media) take interviews, they go back to the office and edit it – whatever is convenient, what they feel is required will be kept. They will try to keep whatever there is demand for,” mentioned Tiwari in a video posted on X.
“There were two things Aakash bhai (Aakash Chopra) said. I am pretty sure that he may not have seen the interview of 20 minutes. And these four-five lines which came out from my interviews, he might have just seen that. I just want to clear this, Aakash bhai.
“I like Aakash, I respect him, (he provides his) trustworthy opinion. I really feel you will need to clear this up. Aakash bhai mentioned, ‘Manoj behti Ganga mein haath dho raha hai (Manoj is washing his palms within the flowing Ganga),’ (an idiom which means to go along with the tide), after individuals like Sunil Gavaskar and Sanjay Manjrekar have been additionally criticising Gautam Gambhir.

“There is no such thing, Aakash bhai. I have no need to wash my hands in the flowing Ganga. The river is close by, and I can wash my hands there any time, but I do not wish to. I had not been following what those people said. I just said what I felt in the interview.”
