The run-out occurred due to a mix-up between the two batsmen, breaking a promising 102-run partnership and halting India's momentum in their innings. Manjrekar's comments highlight the importance of effective communication and trust between batting partners, particularly in high-pressure situations.

1. "Kohli’s Error Cost Jaiswal’s Wicket":
   Former cricketer Sanjay Manjrekar expressed disappointment over the mix-up that led to Yashasvi Jaiswal's run-out, stating, "Virat made a mistake and was then trying to justify himself. Jaiswal’s frustration is evident—it was his call, and Kohli failed to respond appropriately."
2. "Jaiswal’s Brilliant Innings Cut Short":
   Speaking about Jaiswal's unfortunate dismissal, Sanjay Manjrekar commented, "Virat hesitated and then attempted to explain himself. It’s frustrating to see such a talented young player lose his wicket due to poor communication."
3. "Run-Out Miscommunication Sparks Criticism":
   Reflecting on the incident, Sanjay Manjrekar remarked, "This was a clear mistake by Kohli. Jaiswal was right to be livid—it was his call, and Kohli should have trusted it instead of hesitating.

Clear from this clip it was jaiswal's call at the danger end only if kohli responded in time both would've been safe. pic.twitter.com/0nI5IEWSSr
