Kevin Pietersen, commented,

“Today, The Switch is partnering with Google Gemini to redefine how cricket is experienced by fans around the world. YouTube is the epicentre of cricket fandom – it’s where the game lives, breathes and connects people globally – and The Switch sits right at the heart of that. Gemini has become a real creative teammate for me – it allows us to move faster, think bigger, and give fans something they haven’t seen before. For me, this is about pushing the boundaries of how cricket is shared and experienced.”
