Sourav Ganguly, the former Indian skipper, is all set to make a spectacular comeback in the cricket commentary arena. His return will occur at the World Test Championship (WTC) Final. Star Sports, the official broadcaster, confirmed his appearance in the Hindi commentary box for the much-anticipated India vs Australia match. The epic showdown will start on June 7, 2023, at the prestigious Oval stadium.
Ganguly’s cricketing expertise is not the only attribute that adds value to the commentary box. His sharp acumen and charismatic presence will significantly contribute to enhancing the viewer’s experience. However, the seasoned cricketer had to briefly shelve his commentary responsibilities. This intermission was due to his appointment as the president of the Board of Control for Cricket in India (BCCI) in 2019.
Now that Ganguly has stepped aside from the BCCI presidency, he will reclaim his rightful place behind the microphone. But that’s not all. Ganguly is also resuming his influential role as the Delhi Capitals Director of Cricket. His vast experience in the cricketing world will undoubtedly bring strategic depth and insight to the Delhi IPL franchise.
Alongside Ganguly in the Hindi commentary box will be Harbhajan Singh, S Sreesanth, and Deep Dasgupta. The trio brings a wealth of knowledge and a fresh perspective to the game, making for an insightful, entertaining broadcast.
Moving to the English commentary team, Ravi Shastri will spearhead the panel. Joining him will be Harsha Bhogle, known for his eloquent style and cricketing wisdom. The ensemble also includes Dinesh Karthik, Ricky Ponting, Matthew Hayden, and Justin Langer. This team is a fine blend of international and national cricketing legends.
Shastri, in particular, is a versatile commentator who effortlessly captivates the audience with his nuanced understanding of cricket. Bhogle, on the other hand, stands out with his poetic articulation of the game. Their combined insights promise a rich and vivid narration of the WTC final.
