Nah, I reckon he's a Jagerbomb man tbh.

Warner's losing balls left, right and centre here. What a guy.

Difference between those two is, despite Symonds and Watson being pricks, at least they're good to watch, and don't piss fart around, whilst pretending they are some sort of inspirational leader.

Hmm, would give Ponting a reprieve. Just genuinely dismissed.

Possibly. No better sight in world cricket than seeing Watson's hour long hold of his stroke whenever he gets out.

Yeah true. Not attempting to discredit Taylor who was bowling superbly.

Do they only have 4 man rotations on commentary for every match? If so, being spared Nicholas for an Australia match has made my day.

Chappelli is gun, probably could replace M Clarke.

Always love the commentary stylings of Ian Chappell.

Doesn't hide the fact that he is asking for a certain highlight footage.

Everyone being stiff on Fletcher. That ball hit a tough of grass/dirt, bounced over his hands. Terrible stuff not charging after the next ball though. International cricketers should back themselves at every opportunity.

OMFG, why is Big Ian airing out his ideological drivel about Warner being a good test player on live TV. It was bad enough reading his views ong cricinfo...

Pretty awesome that there won't be a 7 and a half minute break after 10 overs.

Can't agree with Chappelli's idea of Warner opening in the FC game.
