Former Indian spinner and commentator Harbhajan Singh responded thoughtfully to criticism of the Hindi commentary during IPL 2025. A fan, in a social media video, expressed disappointment with the current panel, arguing that earlier commentators like Maninder Singh, Arun Lal, and Sushil Doshi provided deeper analysis, whereas the present team focuses more on one-liners and witty remarks. He also urged commentators to refine their Hindi.
Harbhajan acknowledged the feedback after the video gained traction online. “Thank you for the input. We will work on it,” he replied, embracing the criticism and assuring improvement.
The Hindi commentary panel for IPL 2025 includes several former cricketers and experts such as Virender Sehwag, Navjot Singh Sidhu, Shikhar Dhawan, Suresh Raina, Mohammad Kaif, Piyush Chawla, RP Singh, Pragyan Ojha, Sanjay Manjrekar, Sanjay Bangar, Varun Aaron, Sunil Gavaskar, Ajay Jadeja, Jatin Sapru, Anant Tyagi, Saba Karim, Deep Dasgupta, and Aakash Chopra.
Meanwhile, IPL 2025 has started with a bang, witnessing an incredible 119 sixes in just the first five matches. The most recent high-scoring encounter took place at Ahmedabad’s Narendra Modi Stadium, where the Gujarat Titans, led by Shubman Gill, fell 11 runs short against Shreyas Iyer’s Punjab Kings. Chasing a massive target of 244, Gujarat Titans fought valiantly but ended at 232/5.
The tournament now moves to Guwahati, where Rajasthan Royals and Kolkata Knight Riders will clash on March 26. Both teams are searching for their first win of the season after suffering defeats in their opening matches—RR losing to SunRisers Hyderabad and KKR falling to Royal Challengers Bengaluru.
