Commentators that don't know too much about the lesser ODI nations really grind my gears. Cricket is your ****ing job.

Yea guys that really annoy me are people like David Lloyd, half the Aussie commentating team, the Sri Lankan fellow, Akram (He just can't put a sentence together) and there's probably a few more.

I mean before the Ashes started Loyd said he hadn't seen Johnson until the world 20/20 a month earlier, that is really slack.

Should be an awesome match, Australia tend to bring out the best in us and we certainly bring the best out of a few Australian's too. Two hardest working sides in cricket for my money.

Playing patel here would be a birlliant move i think. Nobody would be expecting this and he's almost out bowled every other bowler in the team in the last 6 months.

Love Bhogle, not sure how anyone could not like his commentary tbh. Wish he was on the ABC team permanently, instead of just when Australia is playing India :(
The guy is a joke ok. He hasn't even played school cricket and talks nonsense most of the time.

Thinking of pulling a all-nighter myself. I don't have class tommorow so it should be sweet to do it, although I hate waking up in the afternoon.

HTFU and do it.

Have class in the morning. Haven't slept more than a few hours a night since last Wednesday. Essay due Thursday.

But bugger that a rough day for me is an easy price to pay, how often do NZ make the finals?

Guess we'll just have to agree to disagree then, have honestly enjoyed every bit of commentary from Bhogle I've ever heard. Playing top level cricket isn't (and rightfully so at that) a pre-requisite for being a cricket commentator, and the sport is lucky to have journalists like Jim Maxwell and Bhogle to broadcast it to the masses.

They just claimed the semi was being investigated for match fixing. Remarkable, even by their standards.
I don't think this claim is true, they've just followed the rest of the crap NZ media in quoting some random Indian paper's opinion piece.
