Cricket Meets Cutting-Edge Tech as IPL 2025 Debuts a Robotic Camera Dog
The 18th edition of the Indian Premier League (IPL) is well underway, and alongside the high-octane matches and superstar performances, something else is stealing the spotlight—a robotic dog. Yes, you read that right. IPL 2025 has introduced a robot camera dog, and it has quickly become the internet’s newest obsession.

From thrilling chases to nail-biting finishes, the tournament has delivered non-stop entertainment. But now, the spotlight has shifted—at least momentarily—to a four-legged tech marvel that’s changing the way fans view cricket.
Robot Dog Joins the IPL Broadcast Team
During the match between Mumbai Indians and Delhi Capitals on April 13, fans were surprised to see a robotic dog equipped with a live camera roaming the fieldside. This isn’t just a cool gimmick—it’s a part of the IPL 2025 broadcast innovation initiative, blending AI, robotics, and entertainment.
The robot dog made its first appearance in a video shared by the official IPL social media handles, introduced by popular commentator and former New Zealand cricketer Danny Morrison. The dog has since become a social media sensation.

“It’s got the vision of a pet,” joked Morrison, while warning fans not to get too close. The robot even stood up on its hind legs, leaving players and spectators stunned.
Cricketers React From Surprise to Laughter
