New Delhi: Former India fast bowler Zaheer Khan made his debut as a commentator in the cricket match between Bangladesh and Pakistan at the Eden Gardens, Kolkata in the ongoing ICC World Twenty20.

Zaheer joined former Pakistan legend Shoaib Akhtar in the Hindi commentary box for Star Sports as the first over was bowled on Wednesday by Bangladesh.

Zaheer Khan followed his teammate of yesteryears Virender Sehwag, who made his commentary debut on Tuesday in the match between India and New Zealand.

The duo were invited by the channel to join the Hindi commentary team to make it more interesting for the fans.
