Ramiz Raja is not part of Asia Cup commentators’ panel

Ramiz Raja is not part of the Asia Cup commentators’ panel!

Asia Cup’s official broadcaster Star Sports has announced a 19-member commentators’ panel for the upcoming tournament, which includes four former cricketers from host Pakistan and ten from India.

The commentary panel from Pakistan included Bazid Khan, Aamer Sohail, Wasim Akram, and Waqar Younis.

While Ravi Shastri, Andy Flower, and Matthew Hayden among others were prominent names that would be commentating during the Asia Cup.

 

 

Ramiz Raja who returned as a commentator during the Test series between Pakistan and Sri Lanka last month is not part of the Asia Cup commentators.

He had been away from the commentary box since September 2021, after being elected as the chairman of the Pakistan Cricket Board (PCB) for a period of three years.

His absence from the commentators’ panel is not acceptable to many of the cricket fans!

 

The Asia Cup, which will take place in Pakistan and Sri Lanka, is set to kick off on August 30.

The final of the Asia Cup 2023 is to be played on September 17.
