Star Sports Debuts AI Commentary in IPL, Steve Smith Praises Kohli in Hindi
Star Sports, the official broadcaster of Tata IPL 2024, is introducing AI-powered enhancements that include a translation feature. This feature will allow international commentators to speak Hindi in their original voices, creating a more engaging experience for a diverse audience. Throughout the IPL 2024 season, Hindi-speaking fans can enjoy direct interactions directly with their favorite international cricketers, including Matthew Hayden, Stuart Broad, Kevin Peterson, Brian Lara, and many others, through surround shows on television. In a video which has gone viral over social media, former Australian captain Steve Smith can be seen appreciating Kohli’s cover drive. While Kohli’s cover drive has garnered praise from fans around the world, what’s intriguing in the video circulating on social media is Smith speaking in Hindi.

Excited to share my insights to Hindi audiences around the globe with IPL on Star. Pretty neat huh? Join me from 6 p.m for tonight’s opener between CSK and RCB on Star Sports India,” posted Smith on Instagram. Commenting on the tech initiative, Steve Smith, Star Sports Commentator for IPL 2024 said,”Namaste India! Being a part of the StarCast with such a stellar line-up of commentators has been a thrill for me. More importantly, my family, friends, and fans around the world got very excited after the hologram clip went viral last year. This season I’m part of another breakthrough technology where you’ll hear my IPL insights in Hindi. I’ve received some great feedback from fans, and I’m excited to connect with millions of viewers through the Star Sports Hindi feed.” After not receiving any bids in the 2024 Indian Premier League (IPL) auction and being unable to secure a spot with any team for the season, Australian cricket legend Steve Smith will take on a new role in the 17th edition of the lucrative league. He is set to join the commentary team for the upcoming season.
