While the tech sounds cool, I have a respectful criticism. Nothing can replace the thrill and emotion of the game as explained by a passionate commentator like Harsha Bhogle or the analysis from a former player. AI might get the facts, but will it get the *feeling*? The drama of a last-over finish?

"Help with your Googly" – love the pun! 😄 This could be a game-changer for fantasy league players like me. Real-time AI insights on player form and match conditions? Yes, please! Hope it's integrated well with the apps we already use.

Good initiative, but I hope the focus remains on improving the fan experience and isn't just another data collection tool. Also, the tech must be made accessible on affordable Android phones, not just high-end Pixels, for it to truly reach the masses in India.

My dad loves cricket but sometimes struggles with the fast commentary. If Gemini can explain things in simpler terms and in multiple languages, it would be amazing for older fans and those who are new to the sport. More power to such inclusive tech!
