Harsha Bhogle on air said that both the batters slowed down probably because they were tired, and Manjrekar immediately jumped in and stated that they were close to their milestones.
He calls it as it is, and that's exactly why I enjoy his commentary.

Shahbaz this IPL -

Against MI - picked up the huge wicket of Kishan when MI were 50 for 0 in 3 overs.

Against PBKS - scored a crucial 14*(7).

Ishant-Bumrah-Shami-Umesh was a quality pool of fast bowlers to pick from. No matter which pair you picked in home Tests, there was just no drop in quality. Minimal, if ever.

Will never understand this gate-keeping attitude from certain cricketers. Fans are massive stakeholders in the game, and they have every right to criticise.
In this case, Kohli's declining numbers against spin (over a decent sample size) didn't lie.
We understand the game.
Kohli said "All the people who talk about Strike Rate and me not playing spin we'll talk about these things (numbers) - it's just about doing my job - it's kind of a muscle memory for me now".

How useful was that innings from Klaasen. Raw power nullifies slow surfaces. And he's also a brilliant rotator of strike against spin. That's an underrated aspect of his game.

Without a mega auction, Vettori did whatever he could to improve the side. The Shahbaz trade really did benefit us, and signing Head and Cummins turned out to be a masterstroke.

Klaasen hit 4 fours against spin this IPL, down from 15 last season, whilst his sixes went up from 19 to 23. His avg against spin dropped (132 to 38), and so did his strike rate (191 to 180). These numbers (and a simple eye test) suggest a riskier (and less effective) approach.

What's more frustrating is people advocating for his re-entry into the Test side on the basis of T20 performances. He was rightfully dropped.
It is sad that one of India's finest Test batsman has to prove his worth in a random T20.
