Review Quotes: "Speeding Up Sport provides cogent insights into how cricket has evolved with technological advancements. Subramanian skillfully explains how commercialization and digital connectivity have impacted cricket and positioned the IPL as a global enviable spectacle. While traditionalists mull over test cricket decline and question the depth and breadth of technological engagement in the game, Subramanian's work emphasizes the inextricable involvement of technology in the modern game." -- Anand Rampersad, Technology and Culture
