Harsha Bhogle to return to the commentary box during India's tour to the West Indies
Bhogle had earlier lost his spot in the commentary box due to a controversy during the 2016 World T20.
Renowned commentator Harsha Bhogle has indicated that he will be back in the commentary box for the upcoming series between India and Windies. Bhogle had earlier lost his spot in the commentary box due to a controversy during the 2016 World T20 and hasn’t been in the panel since then.
During his time away from commentary, Harsha teamed up with a cricketing portal to provide his expert analysis for all major series and tournaments during the past year. However, Bhogle took to Twitter to announce his comeback to the commentary box. His post read, “I go from here to the West Indies. Am looking forward to hosting cricket and doing commentary from there. Your support has meant a lot to me.”
