ISL Commentators: Top five ISL commentators and broadcasters

Commentators are the backbone of any football game and in India too we have seen some great moments narrated by the ISL commentators since the inception of the Indian Super League.

ISL has proved to be a pathbreaker in terms of pushing Indian Football to its very best as a number of talented people are now emerging from various club setups. Star Sports is the official broadcaster of the ISL and they have been trying to provide the best visual and streaming quality to the Indian spectators alongside some of the very fine voices of football.
