[boozemonster]

Henry Bolfeld, the finest cricket commentator in the world, mainly because he is minging drunk all of the time.

Michael Holding and Jimmy Adams are quite clearly West Indian.

[BigCrickNan]

Sri Lanka
Rangit Fernando

Ranjit Fernando...god no. All he says is "thats gone for 4" or "it's bowled him" or whatever.

 

[Animator!]

The Majority of commentators around these days are dreadful.

 

[Yorkshire_No1]

I like Beefy, he speaks what he feels and knows his game. Class act.

 

[Animator!]

Beefy, Ather, Hussain (at Times), Bumble (when he's trying to be serious), Ian Ward, Rameez Raja, Ian Healy, Benaud, Holding & Jimmy Adams are the only decent ones.

With the top three probably being;
1. Benaud.
2. Holding.
3. Atherton.

 

[Skater]

No doubt, Richie Benaud is the master. I like Michael Atherton as well.

 

[Gilly Fan]

When did Jimmy Brayshaw start commentating?
Did he commentate for the Aus Domestic on 9?

 

[tsyrmas]

Nasser Hussain is by far the best English commentator.

Hmm, A little bit too biased for me. Still, no where near as bad as Bumble or Lawry.
