We are delighted to announce that Manish Bhasin, a distinguished sports journalist and broadcaster, widely recognised for his work with the BBC and as a leading global presenter for the Premier League, will be the presenter for the Sport Resolutions Annual Conference 2026, in association with Winston & Strawn LLP.
With a career spanning more than two decades, Manish is best known for his nine-year tenure at Premier League Productions, hosting official global matchday coverage to an estimated weekly audience of 700 million across over 180 countries.
In 2004, he made history as the youngest-ever regular host of BBC One’s Football Focus at just 27. He later spent six years as lead presenter of The Football League Show and has frequently fronted Match of the Day 2 and the BBC’s FA Cup highlights coverage.
Beyond football, Manish has served as the BBC’s primary cricket presenter, covering the Ashes and multiple ICC Cricket World Cups.
