Popular Post Suhaan Posted February 6 Popular Post Share Posted February 6 He's been like this for years, hasn't improved or added anything in his commentary And his extra yard of effort to pretend as a native speaker annoys everyone His sense of humour is poor even by kindergarten standards on top of that adds negative value with cricketing aspect of things He should have been thrown out of comm box decades ago with stone age cricketers like Gavaskar,VVS,Akash Chopra,Murali Kartik, They should rather setup commentators training wing for more competitive and lively commentary Norman, rollingstoned, Sgattick10 and 8 others 2 1 2 6 Link to comment

Gollum Posted February 6 Share Posted February 6 Ian Bishop should be a hired to commentate for all matches featuring India. We don't have to rely just on Indian voices and anyway Bishop knows our players (including U-19, domestic, promising fast bowlers etc.) way better than these Indian clowns. He also puts in the effort, does his research......some commentators are natural, but Bishop proves that one can ace this job with hard work. Our people just turn in for the paycheck. Bishop, Swann, Gilly/Ponting, Ian Smith, Lisa Sthalekar/Mel Jones/Kass Naidoo, Isa Guha, maybe even poach one of the ex Sky commies.....let Indian viewers have the best experience. These days I am watching most Indian games on mute, all are bakwas. tweaker, rollingstoned, Rightarmfast and 3 others 1 3 2 Link to comment

Detonator Posted February 6 Share Posted February 6 Wish there’s an option to mute commentary and watch cricket in its natural form. Link to comment
singhvivek141 Posted February 6 Share Posted February 6 Ravi Shastri is still our best commentator in English, Agarkar & Ganguly were decent as well but they moved away. Agarkar was quite good in providing technical insights. Murali Kartik was decent as well when he started, but slowly fallen into the same category of clichés. God, sometimes I miss Sidhu. His commentary was cringeworthy in Hindi, but had great command and fluency in English, used to cheer even in the dull moments. Sgattick10, raki05, tweaker and 2 others 1 4 Link to comment

These days I am watching most Indian games on mute, all are bakwas. Don't know about others but Bishop would be a great addition Also like Finch, Watto and whatever I've heard from Steyn. Southern Hemisphere commentators are really good. Their insights on the game are always refreshing to hear (the sane youngers anyway not cringeworthy ones like Skull) Sky is a little overrated. Nasser and his cliches , Isa Guha are somewhat irritating. Link to comment
putrevus Posted February 6 Share Posted February 6 Unless Ian Bishop is there whom I like a lot, I mute everyone else. They have nothing to add which is worthwhile to listen anyways. Link to comment
