I am 34 and I plan to play for another ten years: Manoj Tiwary

Manoj Tiwary is one of those cricketers whom you can name under the category of “born in the wrong era”.

The batter despite his good performances has been side-lined for various reasons. The cricketer has been vocal about the same as well.

The 34-year-old while talking about his retirement plans said that he is not going anywhere.

“I’m not going anywhere. I’m 34 and I plan to play another ten years. I know it’s not going to be easy. If Wasim [Jaffer] bhai can play for so many years if Zaheer Khan can roll his arm at 42 and still get wickets at T10, why can’t I? Michael Jordan, LeBron James, so many other athletes. Nobody will question LeBron James – he’s 34 I guess. He’s going to continue for another 3-4 years. So that’s how I want to break it down. Three years [at a time], or two. I’m not going to go (out) so easily,” said Manoj Tiwary.

The right-hander added: “I want to score more than 1000 runs this season. That’s my aim. I’m working towards it. Whatever is required to be done, whether it’s physical or planning my innings in a better way.
“I’ve chalked out a few areas where I need to work as far as my technique is concerned. Getting my technique a bit tighter for the Ranji games. Which is always the challenging part when you play shorter formats before the Ranji season, you want to play Ranji in the same flow.”

Tiwary last played his international match in 2015.
