Former Sri Lankan captain and current MCC president Kumar Sangakkara has joined the IPL commentary panel in the UAE.
On Saturday in Sharjah, he even shared the dias with India great Sunil Gavaskar analysing the post-match analysis of the game between the Chennai Super Kings and the Delhi Capitals. The Dhoni-led CSK team lost the match by 5 wickets.
Sangakkara has replaced Kevin Pietersen who, after his contract for the first half of the IPL season ended and he left for England to be with his family.
All three former Sri Lankan greats including Mahela Jaywarndene the coach of the Mumbai Indians and Muthiah Muralitharan (Sunrisers Hyderabad bowling coach) are being well-praised by the commentators.
Like other coaching staff, we never found you jotting down the notes of the match, Murali was asked by the commentator.
"I keep a tab of the players' strengths and weaknesses in my mind", Murali has answered to the commentator's query.
