FINED for his controversial statement that the “Ranji Trophy should be scrapped”

Bengal: Veteran cricketer Manoj Tiwary has stated that he has been fined 20% of his match earnings for making a comment on the Ranji Trophy, just a day after he announced his retirement from all forms of cricket. On February 10, Tiwary said in a tweet that the Ranji Trophy should be “scrapped” since it is becoming less meaningful.

“Ranji Trophy should be scrapped from the calendar from the next season onwards,” Tiwary tweeted on X. There are so many issues with the competition. There are a tonne of things that need to be investigated in order to preserve this esteemed competition with a long history. It is becoming less significant and charming. Completely irritated
