Right, Jaddu?&quot; The cricketer replied with a laugh and said: &quot;Yeah, yeah. Absolutely!!&quot;Nachiket Kher@NachiketKherSuccess makes you the bigger person @imjadeja1Success makes you the bigger person 😄@imjadeja https://t.co/RhqqGFEL0bThere has been some history of animosity between the two gentlemen. A few years back, Manjrekar had referred to Jadeja as a &quot;bits and pieces&quot; player, apart from criticizing his performances. The Indian all-rounder hit back at the former cricketer by taking to social media and slamming him in a scathing post.Manjrekar, however, displayed a great sense of humor to ensure there was no awkwardness during the interview. To his credit, Jadeja also showed he was open to putting the past behind him.Coming back to Manjrekar, he is not considered among India’s popular commentators.

Bowling first, they bowled out the Men in Green for 147 in 19.5 overs. In reply, India stumbled to 89 for four before Jadeja (35) and Hardik Pandya (33* off 17) added 52 to put the Men in Blue in control.Jadeja was bowled by Mohammad Nawaz off the first ball of the last over. However, Pandya slammed the left-arm spinner for a six to seal victory for India. Speaking after the game, Jadeja commented:&quot;We wanted to play till the end, they have a very good bowling attack, their fast bowlers don’t give anything away. I could have finished the game - left-arm spinner against left-hander, but Hardik played superbly. He (Pandya) came out and said he was going to play his shots, and happy that he stayed till the end.”Pandya (33* &amp; 3/25) was named Player of the Match for his all-round brilliance.
