As social broadcasters only show ODI and T-20 matches, air time is limited. Puri started speaking after looking at his father Devraj holding the microphone in his hand.
I started as a goaltender when my dad was a radio host. I also played the game in college. When my father died, I was asked if I wanted to answer questions. I was hired for one day and then offered a permanent job.
He described the game as he saw it. He saw it with the eyes of an enthusiastic student of the game, not missing small details such as changes in the ground setting. He literally gave you a ringside look. Dr Narottam Puri's melodious voice is what adds to the love of following cricket on radio Starting the definition in 1971, Puri has seen it evolve over the decades.
