Aakash Chopra Is The First Professional Commentator To Call On Digital Cricket Matches Of The WCC3:
In this ideal world, basically, Aakash Chopra would have busy in the country, commenting on Indian Premier League (IPL) 2020 matches these days. The Covid-19 pandemic did, though, fixed an indefinite postponement of the IPL tournament.
Through joining the digital cricket franchise World Cricket Championship (WCC), Chopra has found a way to keep his passion and discipline of cricket working.
As a result, the former India Test opening batsman was the first professional commentator to call on the digital cricket matches of WCC 3, which has a fantastic fan base of 110 million.
It would be an interesting turn to think about the matches playing out in the digital arena from focusing on the top names in the country, something that may take some adjustment.
“In a particular sense, it challenges you, that the primary purpose is to keep things as genuine as possible. The goal is to keep that the language, discovering a way to explain the same topic in 5-7 different forms, “Chopra says.
The Commentator Is The Only One Guiding The Whole Narrative Through The Entire Game:
A batsman scoring six on each delivery of an over in professional cricket. It might be incredibly unusual, but it is popular in digital matches. To Chopra, the main task is to be flexible and creative in these circumstances.
“Unlike in real cricket where there are playing passages, (such as) where not all six balls in an over are hit for a six all the time, here is a chance to happen this. If you remember the Stuart Broad over (in 2007 World T20 against Yuvraj Singh), that’s a massive challenge for a commentator- finding a better way to explain the same result, if not the shot, “Chopra said.
The one voice in the comment box in WCC 3 should be the retired India opening batsman’s.
“When you’re making commentary in the match, you’re there (on the microphone) with two of your colleagues for just half an hour, you get up to eight overs of the match, out of which, 10 minutes of talking time. But this is all on your own — you are the only one to direct the whole story throughout the entire match.
