Sky commentary team are a disgrace

[King Tendulkar]

They are a holes. Bumble and Botham in particular have turned in to vile indian haters, bordering on psychotic hate for us. Even Nasser seems half normal compared to these two haters, Ian Ward is the only reasonably normal one amongst them Foreign teams act like pack of dogs with foul mouthed abuses most of time. And they are backed up by their comms. Like sky comm team, who are a disgrace to the spirit of cricket in their BS, one eyed commentary and bordering on racism comments. They have been insnae in last few days with clear vitriol against india. So bias with zero objectivity, its pathetic Never again laud Lloyd as some great funny comm. He has been an idiot this series. Such hate for India.

I agree with this. Sky commies have been so biased that it was cringeworthy. Their criticism of Indian tactics on 4th morning was hilarious. On trot shout in the first inning beefy called it outside the line when it was stone dead.

Who cares about these losers, when you hate someone or something the only person its negatively effecting is you. They are just jealous they are having to work still earning peanuts (relatively) whereas the Indians have $$$$$$ coming out their $$$$'$

They are biased, but what do you expect ? Sky were not exactly happy with they way BCCI treated them. And they made valid points regarding the Indian behaviour towards the umpiring - no point moaning now if you dont want DRS.

Umpires cannot be excused for poor decisions just because DRS is there but not being used, they have been making decisions without for 100 yrs. This series has seen dreadful decisions given against India compared to England, especially in first 2 tests.

What a load of rubbish. Alot of Indian fans just cant take any criticism of there so called Gods What has bumble said thats so offensive thats isnt the truth.

Our best batsmen Cook was given out twice by that idiot umpire, the LBW decision in the first innings was missing off stump by 6 inches

[Dumbbells]

Indians are pakistanis in their country are pissing them off.

[Tendulkar_Bhai]

Our best batsmen Cook was given out twice by that idiot umpire' date=' the LBW decision in the first innings was missing off stump by 6 inches[/quote'] And he was also saved twice with plumb lbw's when he made his big score.

Maybe the Pakistanis and Somalians but the Indians are hard working peaceful lot! Jealously nothing else.

[Iconoclast]

They were fine during the Pak series despite getting whitewashed ... although I haven't listened to them this series ... having too much fun with the Hindi commentary.

[Iconoclast]

Yeah and you think it was a big grand party when you were in out countries

[maverick451]

The sky team dont mince their words like the BCCI cheerleader com team, if India are rubbish they will say so, if the fielding is a disgrace they say so, the same goes for for England team.

[Iconoclast]

The sky team dont mince their words like the BCCI cheerleader com team' date= if India are rubbish they will say so, if the fielding is a disgrace they say so, the same goes for for England team.

Ain't Ravi and Sunny being paid a million dollars a year by the BCCI ? Wonder if any other commies are on the BCCI payroll ...

[Cabinet96]

Maybe they wouldn't be so bitter if they were allowed to go to the grounds without being charged half a million pounds.

Sky is good. I like their commentary panel. For the most part, their analysis is enjoyable. :good:

[superstar]

Add stupid cricinfo commentators to that list. Monga is trying hard to fit in....

[Shunya]

what exactly they said...

[gimac]

what exactly they said...

THE TRUTH :haha:

[koolkarts]

Yeh they've been a bit irritating this series, but I like Bumble still, I think he's fine. I can't stand Hussain this series though. When Dhoni first complained about light, hussain started making stories "oh look, first step, looking at the heavens, second a lot of blinking.. etc". I remember he used to say exactly the same about Ganguly, but he keeps his mouth shut when the English team do the same. On the whole though, I still think they are alright. After India won the first test, they gave a lot of credit to India. Beefy is always beefy, he's very patriotic and will always support England (nothing wrong with that). Gower is fine too, he tries hard to balance any argument, and Athers speaks the most sense of the lot. Nick Knight is quite good too - he's fitted in well to the commentary box. The people who I can't stand are George Dobell and Andrew Miller on Cricinfo. They're full of complete ****, and not just this series. From Dobell claiming SRT is Anderson's bunny (which Anderson even later backed away from in his autobiography claiming he doesnt enjoy bowling to SRT" to Dobell claiming Anderson and the English pace attack is better than South Africa's just before the South African series. If I see an article by them, I genuinely skip it. Cricinfo is genuinely junk now. It was junk when India were top and all the articles were about India's invincibility, and it is junk now with the ascendency of SA and England. The only good articles on it are by the special guest columnists. That and the Statsguru are the only reasons I visit it.
