Rating India's Top 10 commentators

The holy trinity: Harsha Bhogle leading the build-up to a game with Rahul Dravid & Sourav Ganguly

Indian cricket fans all over the globe have been treated to listening to some of their favourite cricket legends lend their voice to the cricket action over the years. There’s been a perfect harmony with the action on the field and the description from the esteemed panel of commentators. 

It’s generally been the preferred route for a number of former cricketers such as Ravi Shastri and Sunil Gavaskar. As the game has progressed and expanded, we have seen more and more cricketers take to the commentary box after retirement (or during their playing days) to describe the action.

With their in-depth knowledge of the game, and their personal experience, having played the game, it’s been fascinating to listen to them describe the action. 

Here, we rate India’s top commentators: 

10) Laxman Sivaramakrishnan

Laxman Sivaramakrishnan
‘LSK’ back in 1984 

Laxman Sivarama….. ‘LSK’ is another one who has established himself as a commentator over the years. He has a slightly dry style which makes it tough for him to endear himself to the viewers, coupled with a slightly nasal voice. Through no fault of his own, he has penchant to focus on the leg spinners, which can prove to be slightly annoying. His sense of humour is not his strongest trait. 

Rating: 3.5
