IPL 2023: Sunil Gavaskar Headlines Star-Studded Commentary Panel Of Official Broadcasters; No Bhogle, Shastri In List
IPL 2023: This year will be the first since the inception of the tournament that there will be separate broadcast and live streaming partners.
The brand-new season of the Indian Premier League (IPL) is just around the corner. With the first match of the season scheduled on 31 March between the defending champions Gujarat Titans and the four-time winners Chennai Super Kings, there is a sense of excitement among the fans for the start of the cash-rich league.
The official television broadcasters of the tournament has now released a star-studded commentary line-up for the competition. It is pertinent to note that this will be the first time in history of the tournament that there will be a separate broadcast and live streaming partners and both are competing against each other to grab the maximum number of eyeballs.
In a bid to do just that, Star Sports, where one can tune in to watch the IPL matches on television this year, has included some of the legends of the game like Sunil Gavaskar, Jacques Kallis, Matthew Hayden and Virender Sehwag in their commentary panel. In addition, they have confirmed that they will be providing the feed of their coverage in as many as nine languages.
However, the list does not include some of the prominent names like Ian Bishop, Ravi Shastri and Harsha Bhogle who have been an integral part of the tournament's broadcast in the past. While all three of them are expected to cover the tournament, they could be part of the world feed of the broadcast.
