Once a football anchor on Zee Sports, Mayanti Langer has switched to cricket.   This Punjabi 21 year old was the only student in Sriram School, New Delhi, to play football.  Soon, she became the lead coordinator at the Girls’ Football League at the Indian Youths Soccer’s Association in New Delhi.    

She was no Mandira Bedi.  Mayanti knew the sport of football enough to go on TV with it.

And she got her big break when in 2005, she started doing half time and review shows for Alchemist Federation Cup and Santosh Trophy for Zee Sports. 

After graduating from Hindu College in English Honors, she covered the FIFA Beach Football as a guest anchor.  Then came Football Café — a weekly magazine show on football.

When Zee Sports launched ICL, they picked Mayanti to anchor the ICL show.
