Australian commentators insult Mayank Agarwal and Ranji Trophy

[tweaker]

 

Australian commentator Kerry O'Keefe took a dig at the Indian first-class cricket system & said  that Agarwal may have scored his triple century against 'some canteen staff or waiters,' referring to the Indian domestic bowlers.

Canteen staff of waiters are anyday better than thugs and convicts. 

[Khota]

Ignore it.

[LordPrabhzy]

atleast the canteen staff and waiters dont do ball tampering to get wickets...

[sandeep]

He did apologize a bit later in the telecast, saying he "didn't mean to offfend", it was just a "tongue in cheek" remark.

Blame Jadeja for this cynicism. The triple triple centurion but mug with the bat has eroded the value and esteem of a Ranji triple century!

[Austin 3:!6]

Kerry O'keffe should be banned from commentary just for that stupid laugh after every ball in comm box

Averages 50 in last 2 years

[Sandeep99]

And yet he scored 50 against supposedly the best attack the world ever witnessed.. not too bad for a guy who came from such a weak system, eh?

But he continues to be a player incapable  of being picked as a pure batsman.

They get different coverage in Insianthan the one we get here on Willow so they are listening to diff commies.

 

But its all good. I am still missing the old channel 9 team, but I like that fact Warmy and Gilly are there in this current line up. Mark Waigh can be a tool but then you want some guys who e not always talking good stuff about your teama

nd that makes the current commie team pretty good.

 

 

[GolGappe]

Why is Mark Waugh such a salty commentator?

This guy makes Ian Healy sound neutral.

 

I just switch to Hindi commentary when India is ahead and mute it when India is getting pummeled.

[rtmohanlal]

Aussies will be always like that .... how ever hard they try to suppress their instincts and be down to  earth guys. Now and then these type of  arrogant statements come from their mouths.Another in built trait in them is  to 'appologise after offending' which will keep it all back on track as per them.

O keefe was on the willow broadcast. Me and @vvvslaxman pointed that out when he was trying to be funny. You probably missed it.

 

There is constructive criticism and sure tounge in cheek is fine the way Warne was making fun of Vihari’s bowling in the 2nd test as just a random roll your arm insignificant bowler. That was fine coming from the g.o.a.t spinner.

 

This was below the belt.

[maniac]

Warne, Gilly, Hussey are good

 

Border is above average

 

Harsha and Isa have their moments even though Harsha can be annoying and Isa is consistently average. 

 

O keefe and Mark Waugh are terrible.

Many people expressed their anger on twitter.

[OzGirl]

 what Kerry said was tongue in cheek, but Indians don't understand sarcasm Indians are quick to play the racist card when they are the most racist in the world. Calling Kerry a racist is a disgrace the guy is not a racist he has never uttered any racist comments,
