The International Cricket Council (ICC) has picked some of the most iconic cricketing voices
in an attempt to add more richness to World Cup 2023’s flavour and to make the viewing experience for spectators worthwhile.
The star-studded panel includes some of the most familiar voices to have called the game on air and have been doing so for decades like Harsha Bhogle, and Ramiz Raja among others while it also features several names that are fairly new to the gig like Shane Watson, former New Zealand wicketkeeper Katey Martin, and Dirk Nannes to name a few.
Commentary holds paramount significance in the sport and has embellished some of the most iconic moments in the history of the sport.
From “Remember the name” used by Ian Bishop to emphasise the value of Carlos Bratwaite’s fairytale cameo in the 2016 T20 World Cup final to “Kohli goes down the ground, Kohli goes out of the ground” uttered by Harsha Bhogle to describe Virat Kohli’s jaw-dropping maximum that sailed over Haris Rauf’s head in his follow through and changed the entire momentum of the India vs Pakistan T20 World Cup 2022 clash at the Melbourne Cricket Ground, the sport has witnessed some unforgettable lines that remain etched in the minds of fans, experts and even players alike.
