You have probably heard that talent is a gift that belongs to no one and doesn’t require encouragement. However, it is also true that talent has to be given opportunities; even the most gifted individuals can pass away if they are not given opportunities in a timely manner.
In the field of cricket, there have been many talented players in India who were very talented, but they did not get the opportunity on time, due to which those talented players could not make their name as they could. One such talented player from India, Manoj Tiwary, has announced his retirement from all forms of cricket and accused Mahendra Singh Dhoni of not giving him a chance in the next match despite scoring a century.
Read the name carefully; we are talking about Manoj Tiwari and not Saurabh Tiwari. Some people are still confused as to who these Manoj Tiwari and Saurabh Tiwari are. Not long ago, Saurabh Tiwari announced his retirement from all forms of cricket. Now that Manoj Tiwari has announced his retirement from all forms of cricket, some people are considering Manoj Tiwari as Saurabh Tiwari.
Saurabh Tiwary used to play for Jharkhand in Ranji, while Manoj Tiwary is the captain of Bengal. Both have also played ODIs and T20Is for the Indian team. Surprisingly, both of them had very short international careers. Both were talented players and are almost the same age. Both have also announced retirement at almost the same time. Saurabh Tiwari retired without talking about his international career or accusing anyone.
But Manoj Tiwari has made a big allegation against former Indian captain Mahendra Singh Dhoni. Manoj Tiwary has given a statement that “he too had the potential to become a great batsman like Virat Kohli and Rohit Sharma, but the then Indian captain Mahendra Singh Dhoni dropped him from the team even after scoring a century in ODIs against the West Indies in 2011.” Manoj Tiwary has said that he will ask Dhoni why he was dropped from the team despite scoring a century. What is your opinion on this whole episode?
