cricket commentary
Vishwa Hindi Diwas 2025: 10 January is a very special day for India and Hindi speaking people because this day is celebrated as World Hindi Day. Hindi is not just a language, but a link connecting emotions, culture and thoughts. Hindi is an identity. Hindi is self-respect and self-respect. Hindi is not just a language but also an emotion which unites the entire country. Hindi is one of the few languages which is most spoken all over the world. This is the reason why Hindi is popular even in the world of sports.
Cricket is a foreign game but when it comes to Indian cricket, no match is possible without Hindi commentary. There was a time when only English commentary was dominant in cricket, but times changed and then Hindi commentary created its own identity. Now even English commentators like Ravi Shastri and Sanjay Manjrekar are earning a lot of name by commenting in Hindi. However, it has not been at all easy for Hindi commentary to establish itself in cricket. There was a time when cricket was called the game of the British and Britishness was ingrained in cricket. Cricket commentary also used to be in English only, but then times changed and All India Radio did small experiments which soon made Hindi commentary popular in every household.
Hindi commentary took cricket to every home
When there was no TV in every house in India, people used to listen to the commentary of cricket matches on radio only. At that time, a radio set was the only way for many people to know the status of live matches. In such a situation, the voice of the commentators commenting in Hindi reached directly into the hearts of the cricket lovers. When Hindi commentary started in cricket, at that time Sushil Doshi was called the voice of cricket in the country, because it was through his voice that every cricket fan got to listen to the live commentary of the match. For many years, cricket lovers saw Indian cricket climbing the ladder of success through his voice and then when TV sets reached every home, then many former cricketers, after saying goodbye to the game, started a new innings as commentators. .
Getting a lot of love from fans
In view of the increasing demand for Hindi language in cricket, now separate channels have been opened for Hindi commentary. While commentating on these channels, Vivek Razdan and Akash Chopra have worked to give a new identity to Hindi commentary. Seeing the success of Hindi in cricket, now commentary in local languages has started in IPL and sports lovers are liking it a lot.
