Renowned cricket commentator, Harsha Bhogle and football presenter, Peter Drury will meet next week, most probably during Test Championship final. During the UEFA Cup final, the latter confirmed that he will meet his ‘hero’. Apparently, Drury said that Bhogle is his hero. In the video uploaded on Sony Sports Network, he said that he will meet this hero next week.
Notably, it all started after a fan asked Bhogle whether he would like to meet Drury. In reply, the ‘Voice of Cricket’ said that he would love to do so. Fans were quickly drawn to this interaction.
Yes. I hope to meet him some day. https://t.co/La07a8hIhJ

Another well-known pundit, Jim Beglin, intervened to facilitate the meeting after noticing the fans’ enthusiasm. Beglin feels that it is difficult to bring both giants such as Bhogle and Drury together. On the other hand, Jim also agreed that he would talk to Drury about the idea.
On the other hand, Bhogle will be in London, for the Test Championship final, starting on June 7.
Might well be tricky as @bhogleharsha would need to travel to England or Peter would need to travel to India. I’ll be with Peter tonight so I’ll mention it to him.
