Man, Charu Sharma. To do this impromptu, you need to have such command over both cricket and the language. He's performing exceptionally. Don't see such poise and ability very often nowadays.

I have known Charu Sharma as a diver, looking to promote swimming and, in recent years, kabaddi. Countless interactions at cricket matches. He was a revelation today at the IPL auction. Superb job my friend. You have won thousands of admirers @Charuonsports

Was pleasantly surprised to see him last week after so many years, as the chief presenter for the Tata Maharastra Open. One week later, on short notice, he comes as a last min replacement to conduct the high pressure #IPLAuction & how well did he do. Top class by Charu Sharma! pic.twitter.com/jCyFnigILr
