NEW DELHI: Google has launched two two new experimental features in Search with the ICC World Twenty20 in full swing to make keeping up with all the cricket news easier —   fresh content directly from cricket players, personalities and commentators, and a new live sports commentary panel.

Some of the subjects being dealt with are Captain Cool MS Dhoni’s latest match reflections or what Virat Kohli’s been up to on and off the pitch. During the ICC World T20, people will now be able to hear from their favourite cricketers more easily. For example when searching for Ravindra Jadeja, there will be posts, match photos, or videos directly from him in addition to the news articles, tweets and links you’re used to seeing in Google Search.

Google is also making it easier for webbers to find commentary from a wide range of players, commentators and experts from Search. When one searches for cricket and ICC World Twenty20 related queries like “T20” or team names during and after matches, one can see real-time commentary on the match from a range of cricket stars will be available. 

These commentary panels have been launched in time for the highly anticipated Indian matches  and will be available for the ICC T20 games.

These new Search features are experimental and will run only during the ICC World T20 2016. They follow on from the launch of score updates and match schedules in Search last week.
