Best(current) commentators

School Boy/Girl Cricketer
Cricket is a great game, but add good commentary and it becomes something pretty special, in some cases the commentary can be an event on its own and can be better than the cricket itself. My favourite commentators are the english ones, especially bumble i also enjoy listening to the newzealand commentators, i also like mikey holding, russel arnold, kepler wessels and johnson(the zimbabwean allrounder). I dislike the aussie commentators and the south african ones are also kind of annoying, although hd ackerman isnt to bad

I enjoy Bumble, Gower, Hussain and Botham.
I enjoy Warne when he's not in the Ch 9 Box.
I think Richardson can be a very good commentator, but goes towards being silly a little too often.

The rest, utter ****.

Jeremy Coney is still the best out there. Shame he commentates so rarely these days.

I have enjoyed Russel Arnold in the current Test match.

Brett Lee, never a moment where he doesn't say something unbelievably useful.

Yeah, really enjoy their work for the most part, though Mark Waugh can be a bit cringey at times
It's the shirt I reckon.

Nass still for my money one of the best regular commentators around, can't really think of any better for those that I hear regularly.

I like listening to James Brayshaw at the minute because he seems to realise that less is more.

Love the big bash - just fantastic, apart from delay in qld. Bumble said he's on comms in a big bash game coming up.

Nass & athers my fav in tests, reckon punter would be good for tests too.
