vaibhav_delhi Posted February 9, 2011 Posted February 9, 2011 No Siva, No Lal, No Ranjit, No Definiiiiitely The WC has already started on the right note. Commentators who would be missed, Tony Greg, David Gower, Mark Nicholas, Ian Smith actually 'No Lal' has already enhanced indias chances of winning the cup.
Sachin=GOD Posted February 9, 2011 Posted February 9, 2011 Some names that will be missed Alan Wilkins Michael Slater Mark Nicholas Sir Richie Benaud Jeremy Coney Uncle Lal :sniffle: I would have also like to see Adam Gilchrist or Shane Warne.
Zelig Posted February 9, 2011 Posted February 9, 2011 I guess Gibbs and Symmo will be joining Wilko at the studio
singhprakash72 Posted February 9, 2011 Posted February 9, 2011 For me India needs to have Hindi commentators in the WC ...I remember in 80s we had Ravi Chaturvedi, Jasdev Singh ..it added fun listening to comments on strokes,situation and satire ! I mean nothing against English commentary but it cannot create excitement for common Indian or Pakistani crowd that a local language commentary can ... an EXAMPLE A leg glance described by English commentator is in Hindi " Gaind ko halki si thunki de di " mind you we don't need ex cricketer ! for that you can have plenty of English commentator

Feed Posted February 10, 2011 Posted February 10, 2011 Question marks over telecast of cricket World Cup matches More... Question marks over telecast of cricket World Cup matches Thursday, Feb 10, 2011, Vijay Tagore | Place: Mumbai | Agency: DNA The World Cup is turning out to be logistical nightmare for the organisers. The non-clearance of the broadcast equipment has put question marks over the telecast of the quadrennial showpiece event. Five consignments of the broadcast equipment are gathering rust at the New Delhi airport. The organisers are unable to ferry them to Bangalore as they are yet to get thecustoms clearance for the equipment. The organisers have sent an SOS to the sports ministry but very little seems to have moved since. The potential repercussion of further delay in release could be the blackout of February 12 India-Australia practice match, which is scheduled to be telecast live on ESPN-Star Sports. The more ominous fallout is the impact on the image of the championship, which can ill-afford such a disastrous start. The Indian side of the COC may have to do a lot of answering on the issue. Another consequence could be a legal suit for damages on the organisers from the broadcasters of the championship. Tournament director Ratnakar Shetty has expressed confidence of getting the material clearance in the next 24 hours. “Yes there is an issue over the equipment. We’re hoping it to be cleared by Thursday or Friday,†Shetty said.
Sachin=GOD Posted February 10, 2011 Posted February 10, 2011 No worries - all clearances will certainly be given (on the final day obviously :winky:).

Sachin=GOD Posted February 11, 2011 Posted February 11, 2011 England have the best commentators :headshake:
Zelig Posted February 12, 2011 Posted February 12, 2011 Tony Greig is an Assie :hysterical: Arnie :headshake: Stay indoors man...it's cold out here :((
Akshat Posted February 15, 2011 Posted February 15, 2011 Did anyone hear Ravi Shastri on Sunday? I couldn't notice him. Was he AWOL?
vvvslaxman Posted February 18, 2011 Posted February 18, 2011 Before commenting on who’s on it' date='[b'] its such a relief to see sell-out Siva’s name NOT figure in the list. He can now comment on the distances and heights of high balls, or promote Karbonn mobiles, from the comforts of his living room. :yay: And since Gavaskar’s is there on the list, I guess they don’t need to hire a dedicated statistician since the man himself will do a more than admirable job of keeping track of 50s and 100s. True that. "Ball gets the distance but not the elevation" "Ball gets the elevation not the distance" "Ball gets the distance and the elevation" "Ball didn't get the elevation and distance" L Siva :wall: I am worried about SL commies about "definieetly" :nervous:
