He must have studied the late Tony Cozier, he is a club mate of Kraigg, Jason, Moseley, Jair and Primus to name a few.
Tony Cozier roots are in that club
He has been at it for a number of years, with the Wanderers club, ball by ball video commentary, even with Andrew Mason.
He was part of the Caribbean podcast

Uttamchandani, a Barbados Exhibition Winner, said, “this opportunity is humbling and affords me the chance to spread my wings into another area of cricket commentary and sports journalism”.

The Toronto Metropolitan University student added, “I am doing this while balancing my academic pursuits, so between television and radio appearances, I am in classes, submitting assignments and preparing for examinations”

George Davis out of Jamaica would make a great commentator, and my take on Garfield Burford is already known - both top-class UWI-trained journalists!

I've been hearing him for many years, he is either a product of St.Michaels or Queens College.
He has been doing video commentary for Wanderers, when he was at school.

 
Da-Vincy 2023-06-07 21:49:33 

Have seen him a few times on Sportsmax.
This one on recent WI bowling performances was very good.
Very analytical and informed.

 
jahmekyah 2023-06-07 22:32:54 

In the last CPl. he said the jamaicans were playing with a "chip on their shoulders"

Both excellent, well informed makes you want to listen.

Nikhil speaks quickly needs to slow down to add more quality to his commentary.

Yes. And use fewer words. But he’s promising….and well-researched.

Harrison College, please. Only spent his 6 form at QC. Kept wicket of all things (seeing that he was about 6 ft 4) for school team. Was not great but his constant annoying chatter was a good weapon against oppo batters
