Wow, Sky commentators are massive fan boys. I know it's T20, but as a neutral, it doesn't appeal.

They always have been. Even Nasser (who along with Atherton are the only saving graces) has been dragged down to their ****. Hard to listen to it.

Can not see SA getting close to this. If they are they're going to have to throw the kitchen sink at the English seamers.

de Villiers definitely captained by rote there. Surely one of Ontong or du Plessis was worth an over as pace had gone the distance first up & all English batsmen are generally far happier with pace on the ball?

Yeah I don't like it even as an non neutral. They're not quite in Ian Healy and Bill Lawry territory but they're getting there.
They've arrived, imo.

The standard of cricket commentary around the world has been going down hill for years. Too many international players jumping straight from the dressing room into commentator's chair, imo. It's hard to find a more biased, fan boy commentator than an ex-player.
