Shekhar Suman's cricket gyan!

The poker-faced funnyman Shekhar Suman, after his failed stint with movies and successful one with television beginning with Dekh Bhai Dekh, winding through many serials and hosting his shows like Movers and Shakers, is all set to move towards another direction.

Recently he cut a music album and has a couple of films too. But what's different is for this not-so-avid a cricket buff is to host a cricket programme for the Reliance 92.5 FM channel.

"Though I am interested in catching up with only those matches where India is playing, I will be well-informed about the cricket scenario," says Shekhar, adding further, "When I went to South Africa, I got to understand the psychology of the pitch work. Our players don't have the killer instinct. They have got to win one match to win again. Otherwise their morale goes down and they become slack."

"Every day from 5th to 28th of March, I will be hosting a programme based on World Cup, along with Harsha Bhogle," says Shekhar. While Harsha will be commenting in English, Shekhar will provide the lighter and entertaining side of the game in Hindi.

Talking about the seriousness of the game, according to the actor, "Since cricket becomes top-heavy if you follow the commentaries alone, my role will be to make it light and interactive with spoofs and fun. I will make listening more enjoyable."

We are sure, Shekhar with his wry sense of humour, will definitely generate interest making even the average cricket fan enjoy the commentaries!
