Did anybody hear Bhogle saying to Shaun Marsh that he must smile to the HDFC ady in the presentation ceremony because she has a lot of money. Does he have some brains. That must have been embarrassing. WTF was that.

Whats the probability that a middle-aged man suddenly suffers from a severe bout of diarrhea that totally prevents from doing his job, especially if the job is of sports broadcasting nature? The problem with Harsha is, in order to fill up air-time (and commentary is all about you being to actually say something, anything, to clog up air-time), he has worked out his own internal system of trigger points of when he thinks he needs to make a funny comment. So when he sees or hears something that falls in his list of 'i have to say something seemingly funny' list, he will try to sound funny, even if there's absolutely no humor in that situation whatsoever. I dont doubt his intelligence at all - he certainly comes across as a smart man - but his perception of what is funny and what isnt seems completely disconnected from reality. Sadly, we're the unfortunate recipients of his forced humor. But hey, who knows, among a lesser educated audience (if you're suave enough to register in an online message board and post in it, that automatically disqualifies you from that list), maybe he comes across as engaging and hilarious.. He did win cricinfo's poll of the best commentator, did he not?

I'll take bhogle over shastri anyday.. He's better than many present commentators despite having never played an international game.

I don't think Harsha talks more about cricket in the IPL.

I agree. He is annoying when he attempts to say something funny and the humor falls flat and also sometimes when he tries to talk too fast as though he is doing commentary on radio. :cantstop:

That's actually better than shatri's cliches. Since IPL is more about entertainment than cricket, I'm fine with him doing commentary
