Recently, in a chat, he said that he was disappointed at how things unraveled and also managed to make some indirect remarks at then-captain MS Dhoni, saying that he would discuss everything in the future.

Manoj Tiwary’s Confidence Was Crushed

“See, it happened a long time ago. It’s a matter of the past, but yes, dukh to hota hi hai (It was sad). I would lie if I said it wasn’t saddening. What can we do? It’s life; but it needs to move forward. If I am to write my autobiography or I do a podcast of my own, I will reveal it all. But it wasn’t easy. When a player is at his peak, when his confidence is crushed, it causes a change in mindset,” he told Cricket Addictor.
