Commentary panel for Asia Cup 2025 announced<\/p>\n<\/figure>\n

Indian cricket legends Sunil Gavaskar, Ravi Shastri, and Virender Sehwag, along with former bowling coach Bharat Arun, will join Sony Sports Network\u2019s multi-lingual commentary panel for the Asia Cup T20 tournament starting Tuesday in the UAE.<\/p>\n

The 17th edition of the tournament will see teams from India, Pakistan, Sri Lanka, Bangladesh, Afghanistan, UAE, Oman, and Hong Kong competing for continental supremacy ahead of the ICC T20 World Cup next year. India will commence their campaign on Wednesday against the UAE.<\/p>\n

Commentators for the world feed telecast include former India head coach Shastri, Gavaskar, Sanjay Manjrekar, Robin Uthappa, Bazid Khan, Waqar Younis, Wasim Akram, Russel Arnold, and Simon Doull.<\/p>\n

Prominent names on the Hindi commentary panel include Sehwag, Irfan Pathan, Ajay Jadeja, former India batting coach Abhishek Nayar, and Saba Karim.<\/p>\n

\u201cAs the Asia Cup returns, Sony Sports Network reimagines cricket broadcasting,” said Sony\u2019s Chief Revenue Officer Rajesh Kaul.<\/p>\n

Bharat Arun will join the Tamil commentary team alongside WV Raman, while the Telugu unit will feature Venkatapathy Raju and Venugopal Rao.<\/p>\n

Gavaskar expressed optimism about the Indian team: \u201cAs Team India steps onto the Asia Cup stage under the dynamic leadership of Suryakumar Yadav, we witness a blend of tenacity and experience steering the side. This squad symbolises the future of Indian cricket, diverse, versatile, and combative.”<\/p>\n

Shastri shared a similar sentiment: \u201cWith Surya Kumar Yadav leading from the front and Shubman Gill mastering the art of youthful leadership as vice-captain, this Indian squad exemplifies the perfect mix of experience and potential. Players like Jasprit Bumrah, Abhishek Sharma, and Hardik Pandya bring international class, while talents like Tilak Varma and Harshit Rana add spark and depth.”<\/p>\n

Shastri concluded, \u201cThe Asia Cup 2025 will be the crucible where their mettle is tested, and I believe this team, under Surya\u2019s calm and aggressive captaincy, will rise to the occasion and set new benchmarks for Indian cricket.”<\/p>\n
