December 21, 2021, India: World Cricket Championship 3 (WCC 3), released its latest update, ‘Road to Glory’ featuring multiple language commentaries voiced by former cricketers and professional commentators to cater to more diverse geographies in 2022. Three new commentators, Anjum Chopra for Hindi, Vijay Bharadwaj for Kannada and Deep Dasgupta for Bengali will be joining the roster of the already existing panel. 

With these additions WCC 3 further strengthens its vernacular portfolio to reach out to a larger audience base across the country. Appealing to newer geographies, the game will now have customised language commentaries in new regions which have a sizable fan base.

Said Deep Dasgupta, “Cricket is the most beloved sport of the country and I am excited to bring a slice of that in my native language, to the fans at their fingertips. This will make the game much more immersive for the Bengali speaking audience for sure as they can relate to the actual match commentary in their language.”

While Anjum Chopra’s familiar voice will further boost the already existing Hindi commentary line-up, the two new language additions are likely to appeal to a new set of natives.

Vijay Bharadwaj said, “In a country with a diverse set of languages, one of the things that binds us together is cricket. I believe a gamified version of the sport with a regional touch will be more relatable to the audiences. I am glad to bring a new experience to the native speakers of Kannada through WCC 3!”

The Telugu commentary is voiced by former Indian cricketer and current IPL commentator, Venkatapathy Raju, English by Matthew Hayden and English bowler, columnist and BBC cricket commentator Isa Guha, while the game Hindi and Tamil versions are voiced by Aakash Chopra and Abhinav Mukund respectively.
