Both to cancer. Very sad news.
CMJ was a real voice of cricket and of reason for many of us growing up.

Ye indeed. I remember being at school with the radio listening the bbc cricket commentary in class & cmj, agnew, henry blomfield (spell check) & tony lewis were always superb to listen to.

When you consider that before them people like john arlott, ew swanton & brian johnston also did commentary for them, its not unfair to say that bbc historically has had the best commentary in the games history.
