Regional spin to cricket commentary

How on the television turns on IPL match on Sony Six in Telugu, commentators Y. Venugopal Rao and P. Chandrasekhar are busy chatting away in a mixture of Telugu and English, describes the actions on the field to enjoy. The mixture is not the healthiest one, especially if you grew up listening to Hindi and English commentary on radio and television. And but for an occasional game of a celebrity-league home matches or a rare World Cup finals, Telugu comment has not quite reach to the public, as it was expected.



If the bosses IPL decided in a number remain to exist with Telugu commentary for the second time, you expect there would be a quality boost to obtain varieties with a guaranteed range. However, it still looks like sports fans all over the city throughout its existence awakened.

For cricket lovers like Sriram Madhav who has occasional contact Telugu comment, he feels the movement much difference is not made in the way people consume Cricket. "From the little of what I have observed, the quality of the commentary has not been the best., Not many are capable In times when people see a lot of games in sports bars, public outlets to add it to pay regard ", he adds.

The presence of Telugu commentary is of short duration, always attracts given the limited audience. In this sense, the familiarity with the Lingo's (the sans the sophistication Hindi have spawned commentators) continues to be a problem.

"It was only for a few minutes, I could hear it This is also due;.. We are not heard comment in a local language used as viewers So the line as banthi Bhale adbutanga is pattukunnaadu (he has caught the ball very well) not registered easily as Hindi. All through the Hindi commentary, we were fed by the Doordarshan days, I continue "to see IPL games in Hindi words a software engineer and sports enthusiast M Rag.

Moreover, even if the likes of Richie Benaud, Harsha Bhogle, Sushil Doshi, Jasdev Singh are an authority of its kind in English and Hindi commentary, there have not been many such examples in the case of Telugu comment.

"Unfortunately, it has become a case of unintentional humor because of the very literal translations, the commentators try to make. They are not as professional as their foreign language counterparts," says Raja Satish, switching between English and Telugu comment in IPL interest , It is high time for the Jargon Telugu Cricket Comment specific and serious is because it is consistent to reveal the interest of viewers and not relegate to the margins.
