Which Cricketer's Voice You Hate the Most?

[Maximas]

It's very annoying. He says the most inane things. He's captain obvious.

Has an annoying habit of speaking very slowly too, even at moments where a lot of information ought to be delivered quickly

 

[Cow]

Michael Clarke

 

[Mr Miyagi]

It's very annoying. He says the most inane things. He's captain obvious.

What is worse though?

Commentators who say the obvious things, or commentators who make basic errors constantly.

I'm not saying Rusty is as smooth or as skilled as Ian Bishop is (great voice, great commentary, knowledge, thought - he really has it all).

I'm just saying he's not that bad compared to some that I have suffered through in recent times, imo.

 

[Black_Warrior]

Sachin without a shadow of doubt

 

[Arachnodouche]

Viv. Imran. JK.

Lara's voice and commentary are awful. Hate Russell Arnold too. Didn't hate it but ABdV was hard to understand.

Awful voices don't seem to have stood in the way of female adulation. Viv sounds pretty ***y to me tbh and Imran has that aristocratic, stiff upper lip thing going. Nasally but not altogether atrocious.

 

[trundler]

Viv and Imran were jokes. They're both pretty good to listen to.

 

[Daemon]

Jayawardene, Gayle and Clarke

 

[Adders]

Tendulkar with that girlish voice. Ah, so appalling. Despicable. Can't be a man like Virat.

I also hate sehwag's voice. At one point, I thought he was gay.

No, I have relative who are gay. Sehwag's tone made me thought he was gay. I'm being honest here, it's a farfetched opinion.

Really dire posting from you. No wonder your donkey ****ed off.

 

[GoodAreasShane]

Has to be KP in my opinion. His accent is odd, half Afrikaans, half upper class english, all bizarre and irritating.

 

[YorksLanka]

I would take him over Abeysinghe, any and every day of the week myself..

in terms of those I like, Bumble, Pommie and Ian Bishop..

Viv's voice is very rough.

I really like Nasser and Bishop's voices. Shastri also has a good voice, unfortunately the content is nonsense.

Ravi shouts a lot.

 

[trundler]

Harshq Bhogle's really dire too.

 

[Mr Miyagi]

That Pommie guy from Zimbabwe (does commentary in SA too) - just shouts all the time. I don't mind him per se but if he and Ravi ever commentate together - it will be like UFC commentary I fear.

The one true answer to this thread is Mushfiqur Rahim

*shakib bowls, batsman middles it* AHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHH BOWLING SUCKY SUCKY

Jeremy or Jeffrey something or other is the greatest from Zimbabwe. Booming voice, has no idea what's going on and talks constantly. He's fantastic in a truly terrible way.

 

[flibbertyjibber]

Don Bradman sounded weird, an Aussie version of Joe Pasquale.

 

[Daemon]

KP is meh but is truly unbearable when he breaks out into that god awful laugh

 

[Xuhaib]

Wasim Akram.

hard to pinpoint but it just doesn't go with the man.

 

[GotSpin]

In terms of pure voice and accent, Michael Clarke with KP and Ravi Shastri in hot pursuit
