All-time great debate: ‘It hurts’ says Ravichandran Ashwin to Sanjay Manjrekar

In reply to Sanjay Manjerakar’s all-time great debate on Twitter, Ravichandran Ashwin on Monday shared a famous dialogue from the Tamil movie ‘Aparachith.’ The dialogue can be read as “Don’t say things like that, it hurts.”

India off-spinner Ravichandran Ashwin on Monday responded to Sanjay Manjerakar’s ‘all-time great’ tweet in the funniest manner possible. ‘All- time great’ is the highest praise & acknowledgement given to a cricketer. Cricketers like Don Bradman, Sobers, Gavaskar, Tendulkar, Virat etc are all time greats in my book. With due respect, Ashwin not quite there as an all-time great yet. #AllTimeGreatExplained https://t.co/PFJavMfdIE pic.twitter.com/RbWnO9wYti For all those who don’t understand Tamil, it’s a dialogue from the movie Aparachith! A couple of days ago, Manjrekar, in an interaction, said that he has a problem with Ashwin being included in the category of ‘all-time greats.’ “All-time great’ is the highest praise and acknowledgment given to a cricketer. Cricketers like Don Bradman, Sobers, Gavaskar, Tendulkar, Virat, etc are all-time greats in my book. With due respect, Ashwin is not quite there as an all-time great yet. #AllTimeGreatExplained,” Manjrekar had tweeted on Sunday.
