I was not really talking about how entertaining they are. I know they are very good commentators when it comes to keeping people interested during the "boring" periods. Was simply stating the observation I made regarding their biasedness. And my observation was not based on the ashes series (i followed the english ashes on cricinfo, but watched the aussie one on tv). In the last two years I have seen south africa visit australia and england i remember how biased the commentator were at th t time. It was not just about hyping up their own players, but also belittling the visiting side that got in my nerve (probably due to my biasedness towards SAF). I do not specifically remember the "opinions" they stated but still it left a bad taste in my mouth. But either way, i would never mute a commentary. Leaving the biasedness aside, these guys know what they are talking about when it comes to explaining the game and startegies.


This is all off-topic though. Apologies for the hijack.

Ahhk I can see where you are coming from you see when your lose a series you forget about it hahahahah!

I don't have a recording device, but I do have a large repertoire of descriptive words if that will work.

Here you are:

Such nostalgia with this. I still have the disc of this game actually, got from a Weet-Bix competition after sending in X amount of barcodes or something? Spent many an hour on it. Probably my 2nd fave cricket game behind SWC99 (DBC14 is unclassifiable ).

Just watched some footage of graham gooch's cricket on the Amiga (YouTube). It was actually a very good game for its time, very playable!!

A combination of Sunil Gavaskar (for exceptional knowledge of cricket) and Ravi Shastri (for his voice which pulls you towards the screen) is the best to hear during matches.

Commentators I don't like (Indian) :- Sanjay Manjrekar, Laxman Sivaramakrishnan,
Sourav Ganguly.
The worst commentator is Harsha Bhogle

 

[Snowy]

I would go so far as to say Sunil Gavaskar is the most horribly bias commentator on the entire planet. Moreso than any Australian, Brit, Kiwi or Saffa.

He is quite literally, the worst.

I like Jeremy Coney

We have to remember, unless you're on the pitch or fielding...cricket can be very boring...especially in a 5 day test match.

Don't think so. Test match cricket is like a wonderful symphony. Variations of tone and drama where the quieter moments can be just as interesting for their tension or calm as the excitement of the crash and boom and crescendo.

He is the best for me.
Yes, he may not be humorous and may be a bit partial...
But he has good amount of cricketing knowledge and can analyze situations in a match a lot better than any other commentators.

Dunno, there are times when cricket is boring. Usually when Alastair Cook is talking
