BERGKAMP Posted November 22, 2011 Posted November 22, 2011 Shashtri is the worst commentator in the world. I cant stand him, I feel like killing myself every time I have to listen to him. The man is a dull lifeless cliche machine, never has any of his own stories or insights and has the personality of a turd. I know there are some right dicks commentating around the world but even compared to the like of Healy, Holding and Greig, Shastri is in a league of his own for sheer awfulness.
OriginalCopy Posted November 22, 2011 Posted November 22, 2011 I think he's ok. When India is on top, I would rather hear him than a Nasser or a Boycott who always has ifs and buts. When India is not doing good, he's the optimist person who you want on your side than a gloomy Ramiz Raja or Holding. He's like those radio commentators who brought excitement to the game by getting excited themselves. What will game be without such characters? As far as analysis goes, I find myself completely capable to understand where India stands in a game and what any player should do. So listening to any Boycott or a Nasser Hussain does not help me in any way.
bulbul Posted November 22, 2011 Posted November 22, 2011 I think that guy comes to Commentary box already loaded

goose Posted March 2, 2012 Posted March 2, 2012 the more you follow this game one just gets the feeling that wickets/runs are the need of the hour.

khanjee Posted March 2, 2012 Posted March 2, 2012 Ravi is still ok..i can't stand Sanjy and Wasim..wasim the worst.... he goes like this.. Watson 45 matches, 2000 runs at avg of 41 with sr of 87 .. that is all wasim has to say and couple of other gimmicks...i mean really?
Swing_n_Speed Posted March 2, 2012 Posted March 2, 2012 Give me Shastri anyday man. That dude got personality. Besides he has a powerful voice, very clear, crisp and he is entertaining. Don't know what's wrong with some here but Shastri is a good commentator. He probably ranks just below Harsha, and on par with Saurav. That said someone please get rid of Wasim please.

jusarrived Posted March 2, 2012 Posted March 2, 2012 hated him form day one , really cant stand the guy . Sanjay is best of the lot imo , his tone is a little annoying ..but the only sub continent commentator who makes some good observations relevant to cricket .
Spiderguy252 Posted March 2, 2012 Posted March 2, 2012 Frankly the only Indian commie worth listening to is Gavaskar. But since his tete a tete with the BCCI hags, he's starting to be phased out which is unfortunate.
adi B Posted March 2, 2012 Posted March 2, 2012 both manju nd ravi are 2 of the worst commentators currently alive
