Whether it's a Test or One Day match, the commentators are an important part of every fantasy sports including live cricket. Their presentational style, voice quality, mood, tempo, cricket insights, prejudice, and sense of humour all have a significant effect on the audience. Enthusiasm, excitement, or disappointment can result, as can rage, irritation, and boredom. The world has witnessed a good number of excellent cricket pundits. However, a few people stand out for their excellent commentary among those. It's been intriguing to listen to them explain the action because of their in-depth understanding of the game and their own experiences playing it.
So, in this article we will take you through some of the most renowned commentators that hail from India.
Ravi Shastri
During the 1995 World Masters Tournament, a well-known Indian cricketer made history as a TV commentator. He was also one of the main commentators for the Sony Max-broadcast Indian Premier League for seven years. He formerly served as the Indian National Cricket Team's coach. Between 1981 and 1992, he participated in both Test and ODI matches for the Indian National Cricket Team. He is unique because of his well-known commentary phrases, such as "down the ground," "we are here for toss," and "that's all over." He draws the audience in with his brash voice.
Harsha Bhogle
At the age of 19, while still residing in Hyderabad, Harsha Bhogle started working for All India Radio as a cricket commentator. During India's cricket series before the 1992 Cricket World Cup, he was the very first Indian commentator to be summoned by the Australian Broadcasting Corporation in 1991–1992. He is one of the select few commentators to have called games for television audiences throughout a long career. Bhogle is distinguished by his ability to speak clearly as well as a voice that appeals to cricket fans of all ages.
Arun Lal
Arun Lal is a cricket analyst and a former Indian cricketer. His cricket analysis piece frequently appears in newspapers. Between 1982 and 1989, Arun represented India as a right-handed batsman. He holds a record of 10000 runs scored with an average of 46.94. He provides commentary for Star Sports3 in both Hindi and English. He utilises amazing language that draws in the audience, and they adore his commentary. He has a highly impartial commentary approach.
Sanjay Manjrekar
Whether you love him or detest him, if you ask the best experts in India, this man is on the list. Manjrekar was once a competent batsman who never quite broke out at the worldwide platform, but his time behind the camera and a microphone more than made up for it. He is also a successful anchor. Manjrekar has been providing commentary for many years with his clear tone and accurate observations.
Conclusion
There are many devoted cricket fans who may disagree over who is better than whom, but there is no doubting that the new generation of commentators has made cricket far more enjoyable to watch. Just like Ravi Shastri, you can also be a coach of your own virtual cricket team on fantasy cricket websites. So, what are you waiting for?
