Manjrekar suffers from verbal diarrhoea, says upset Pollard

Mumbai,  Mumbai Indians batsman Kieron Pollard has slammed Sanjay Manjrekar for his on-air comments about his batting during an IPL match against Kolkata Knight Riders, saying the former India player suffers from “verbal diarrhoea”.
Pollard was dismissed for a run-a-ball 17, leaving Mumbai at a precarious 119/5 with less than four overs to go while chasing 179. Manjrekar had criticised Pollard saying he was only good enough to bat for the last six or seven overs of the innings. Manjrekar was responding to a fellow commentator’s query about the ideal batting slot for Pollard.
Pollard responded angrily to Manjrekar’s criticism in a series of tweets. “@sanjaymanjrekar u feel any positive can come out of your mouth bcuz u get pay to talk u can continue with your verbal diarrhoea..,” Pollard said in his first tweet. “Do you know how I get big so… about brainless words are very powerful .. once it leaves u can’t take it back….”
