After the India - Bangladesh match at the T20 World Cup Amitabh Bachchan, in a tweet, wanted to know why a few commentators, despite being Indian, were not pro-India. While the other commentators chose to be quite Harsha Bhogle, the rationalist that he is, chose to highlight the neutrality that is needed from commentators.
Now they say that that rationality has resulted in Harsha being thrown out of the IPL commentary team! I sincerely hope that this "neo-nationalism" has not resulted in Harsha's contract being terminated. One look at the IPL commentary team and you can say Harsha's absence has taken half the common sense out of the IPL.
When asked about Sachin Tendulkar's name missing from the Lord's honors board Harsha once famously quipped asking the questioner if it was Sachin's loss or if it was the board's loss?
Now with Harsha removed from the IPL commentary team - is it Harsha's loss or the IPL's?
