7Cricket Vs Fox Cricket

[Cleavy]

JL being part of 7 isn't that exciting, but Holding and Bishop is.

From the 7 upfronts

“In an exciting announcement for fans, former Australian cricket coach Justin Langer will join Australia’s #1 cricket commentary team for the 2022-23 Summer of Cricket, led by cricket’s most astute commentator, former Australian skipper Ricky Ponting.

Adding to Seven’s incomparable cricket coverage will be former South African batter and arguably the greatest fielder of his time, Jonty Rhodes, former West Indies fast bowlers Ian Bishop and Michael Holding, and New Zealand wicket-keeper Katey Martin”

Langer was painful when he was on ABC back in the day.

Sounds like a boxer that has taken too many blows to the head

Bishop could be pbp? Otherwise why have 2 international commentators for WI series, it’s only 2 matches as well

 

[1989]

Too much of the coverage just seems to be switching from one close up shot to another.

There's a place for close up vision, but it's being done to death, and wider shots make you feel more like you're there.

Am I the only one who likes Katey Martin's accent?

With all the legal stuff I guess we are not expecting 7 to update their test graphics like they updated BBL last year

Great commercial and Michael Holding is awesome but one thing is missing... the current Windies players. I hope they come to the party this summer.

I really liked Huddo as a cricket commentator on SEN

Matthew Hayden would have fitted in perfectly on Channel Nein. Insufferable.

Perfect word. Him and Langer... whoever decided they'd be good calling in tandem should be taken out back and shot.

 

[Gough]

I assume that when Langer talks about what great people the players are, his implication is that's largely down to his careful stewardship.

 

[Kram]

No Hayden with Isa Guhu's magnificent voice and yellow dress and is enough to justify having Kayo.

 

[Plugger35]

Hayden and Langer have forced me to switch to Fox. I like Ponting and some of Ch7's other commentators but I can't put up with those two dribblers.

"In a huge coup for cricket fans..."

Why do they think we want the commentary box stacked with current players?

 

[010203]

Ian Bishop is well known for his "remember the name" call when the West Indies won the 2016 World T20 but I also liked his measured call when the West indies won the final of the 2012 World T20. He's a good ball by ball caller in 20 over cricket but I doubt that's where 7 will utilise him.

 

[CURVE]

Am I the only one who likes Katey Martin's accent?

Not necessarily a fan of her accent, but she does bring a high level of humour to the commentary team.
