Predator_05 Posted August 3, 2008 Share Posted August 3, 2008 "That's the bus which goes to Yalla National Park, all roads lead to the national park as far as I am concerned !". "Yes, i'm definitely going there once this test is over, it's truly magnificent." I hope they paid him well for that bit of free publicity "Apparently, this statue was built after tsunami which...oh, there's an appeal there". The number of times he cuts himself off is truly hilarious EDIT, and now, referring to the run-out appeal... "Well, we were interrupted while talking about the statue...that's how high the water level was, blah blah blah"... Link to comment

sandtest Posted August 3, 2008 Share Posted August 3, 2008 I wonder what he will talk about in a match in sharjah He will say --- Global warming has lead to temperature rise in Arab deserts. There was a time two hundred thousand years back when Homo Sapiens inhabited Green Earth. Temperature was less than half of what it is today in these parts. Global warming is the worst danger. It has made thses parts a desert, I always dream of Homo sapiens whenever I am watching humans playing Cricket here. Link to comment

King Tendulkar Posted August 3, 2008 Share Posted August 3, 2008 Some brilliant observations and commentary by Uncle Lal on the green turtle. He went to the Turtle conservation place in SL and said it was a life changing experience. I must get out there and see it for myself now. Superb stuff from Uncle Lal:two_thumbs_up: Link to comment

DomainK Posted August 3, 2008 Share Posted August 3, 2008 Lal Badshah should find a job in national geographic and spare us all. Link to comment
Holysmoke Posted August 3, 2008 Share Posted August 3, 2008 DSR, one Arun Lal is enough. You dont have to repeat what he says on TV. Link to comment
DomainK Posted August 3, 2008 Share Posted August 3, 2008 Arun Lal was very keen on declaring that not out. He wanted to say that the angle would take it away outside off stump. "That angle....Probablyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyy....." thats when hawk eye showed it crushing into the stumps and Arun lal got stuck and never completed his sentence. Link to comment
Predator_05 Posted August 3, 2008 Share Posted August 3, 2008 LAL is a legend. In 5 days play you have time to talk about other things. He would be perfect for Test Match Special. Yeah, he is like the Indian version of Henry Blofeld. Link to comment
Mr. Wicket Posted August 3, 2008 Author Share Posted August 3, 2008 Except that Blofeld in his better days had some very good insights on the game as well. Blofeld was a pretty intelligent analyst on the game who could entertain on the side with his stories on cakes, pigeons and so on. Lal says almost nothing of note on the game, quite often making some spectacularly dumb or obvious comments, and then becomes even more irritating when prattling on about his land monitors and wagtails.

SachDan Posted August 3, 2008 Share Posted August 3, 2008 Yeah' date=' he is like the Indian version of Henry Blofeld.[/quote'] Blofeld's voice alone was attractive enough to get hooked to the game. You might have a different point of view. Link to comment
