A viral video on social media platform X has sparked a fresh debate on the quality of Hindi commentary in cricket broadcasting. The user, in the widely circulated clip, expressed frustration over the declining standard of Hindi commentary, stating that it has become increasingly difficult to enjoy a cricket match in the language.
The fan reminisced about the older days when Hindi commentary was not only engaging but also educational. According to the video, past commentary helped viewers understand the technical aspects of the game, making the sport more immersive. However, the user lamented that today’s Hindi commentary has drifted away from its informative nature and is instead dominated by poetic expressions and nostalgic anecdotes.

The video resonated with many cricket enthusiasts, leading to widespread discussions on social media. Several users echoed the sentiment, pointing out how past commentary enriched their understanding of the sport and how the current approach seems to lack depth and analysis.
Former Indian cricketer and commentator Harbhajan Singh took notice of the viral complaint and responded with a reassuring message. “Thank you for the input. We will work on it,” he wrote, acknowledging the concerns raised by fans.
The response from Harbhajan has reignited hopes that cricket broadcasters may take steps to refine their Hindi commentary and bring back the insightful and analytical style that once made the experience more enriching for viewers. As the discussion continues, fans will be watching closely to see if their feedback leads to tangible improvements in cricket broadcasting.
