Robin Uthappa commentary appreciation thread

[Global.Baba]

He is pretty good in both analysis and articulation.

 

Not over the top or gimmicky.

 

Speaks to the point and does it well.

Well it says Robin Uthappa (India 2006-Present)

Isn’t it conflict of interest though that the likes of Bhajji,Gambhir or Robin are current players and also doing commentary?

How is it any different from acting in commercials, media appearances or other business interests?

 

Conflict of interest doesn’t apply here.

Pretty decent so far.

 

Already better than most Indian commentators.

On paper. To be honest atleast 4-5 years younger

[The Realist]

He's younger and frankly better than Biryani yet that talentless chump somehow has made it back to the team

[Tendulkar1996]

As long as he doesnt do 'ah..ah..ah...ah', he is alright.

It's his fault as he is out of shape and disinterested playing domestic cricket but by the time Ipl comes he is back in shape and motivated.

The standard was way too low for Indian commies, so no wonder he sounds Tony Grieg ish in comparison.

To be honest Murali Kartik is a good commentator does well in commentary should have been there in place of Harbhajan in England or even in Australia should have been included

Murali Karthik is okay, but sounds too boring for me. Still can listen to him anyday than Manju, Gavaskar or Bhajji.

Bhogle was again idiotic today getting excited over winter or Kartik wearing that kind of monkey cap disappointing that how bad Indian commentators are and equally worse are Aussies boy was Warne cheerleading Australia or what 

[Bigg Brother]

He isn't retired

 

He tweeted this,.

 

"Just to clear the misconceptions out-there.I'm giving commentary a go coz I'm currently recovering from an ankle surgery. It's by no means takes away from how much I love competing and will continue to do so till I don't enjoy it anymore or can't physically. #sonysix #INDvsAUS "

 

[Bigg Brother]

Gambhir sounds like someone is reading news bulletin.

 

He should stick with Cricbuzz,Cricinfo's analysis..

 

[Vilander]

Well yeah Robin and Murali Karthik will be staying in the long run or i hope so they talk sense. 

[Straight Drive]

Anyone over Siva and Manjrekar.
