And while the world was busy felicitating the Indian tennis star, Manjrekar fired in a sarcastic remark followed by congrats.

Sania, obviously enraged by the remark, didn’t resist from roasting the cricket commentator.

Nevertheless, she then thanked him for the wishes.

Manjrekar, now on back foot, tried to defend himself.
Well, you missed out an important detail for someone like me who lacks common sense :) https://t.co/nLgRFONxrn

But Sania was again on the charge against him and fired away an article in her reply so that Manjrekar could take a look at all the ‘important details’.
Clearly!!! So here you go https://t.co/vRE2vmk1ka .. An article with all the 'important details' .. :) https://t.co/lZTGBSsUNA

She then posted a photo on Instagram to celebrate her victory over the former cricketer.
