Good point.
But try to imagine a commentary devoid of any former United or Liverpool player, for a match involving one or both of two teams. It's about as likely.

The difference is that in football they are pandering to the red masses, in cricket why pander to the disliked Aussies? One aussie yeah, but THREE?

Ponting is a good commentator, no issues with him. I miss Gower and Bumble though.

And Botham, and Holding

Yeah Holding was excellent aswell, didnt mind them getting rid of Beefy though he was a dinosaur.

I miss the old commentary team.

Deathly stuff this morning

Better batsmen, better bowlers, better wicket keeper, IF we win the Ashes it will be an unbelievable achievement

We should be well in control in this match. Instead we haven’t taken our chances and are now being worn down. This game was there to be won we just blew it

Not helped by 2 of our bowlers being rather injured

Get this idiot out of the attack and back in retirement.

Bit harsh that - he's a very accomplished player............

Come on England - don’t let their tail off the hook now!

Vaughan heralding Stokes’ tactics as genius, but if that field setting disrupted him and is ‘genius’, then why wait until he’d amassed 141 before setting it?
