I know it might be difficult to understand but I suggest you go through the scientific explanation provided here.

It's what makes him play more shots than say a traditional classical batsman.

Yessss nailed it.

And he is still so pleasing to watch. Plays so many shots and so pleasing. So good.

And yet you still couldn't resist..

Of course not.

 

[Pratters]

KW imo

Kane is just Sachin 2.0. Its boring. Excellent yes but Root is some thing different altogether. He is an exciting player to watch, not just aesthetically pleasing.

such pleasing very wow

Worst spinner overseas in history on the importance of doing well away in the commentary. Enlightening.

Don't want to hold his personal record against him but he really is a poor commentator (irrespective of his playing career)

Wonder if Broadcasters give a brief and some preparation material before the series especially with new commentators like Harbhajan

Umesh is aweful but I guess he is less aweful than Thakur.

Wash your mouth out with tons, young man.

Bhajji instantly enters the all time bad commentator hall of fame with Athar Ali Khan, Sanath Jayasuriya etc.

 

[Pratters]

There is a Lankan too in the commentary god knows why.

 

[AndyZaltzHair]

Umesh is deliberately bowling slow or what. Hardly touching 135s

Here's Holding to bore us while waxing lyrical about how West Indian cricket used to qualify for all ICC events.

 

[OverratedSanity]

Good from the attack as a whole apart from that Umesh spell. That drop's going to hurt really bad though.

 

[Prince EWS]

Wow don't be such a bigot, Pratters.

 

[anaksr]

From struggling to speak a sentence in English to actually commentating in same language must be some achievement for him personally. But yes he's commentry sucksssss.

 

[OverratedSanity]

Wow don't be such a bigot, Pratters.

Atleast the Lankans aren't crowding Kolkata

No. Millions of women would kill for his hair.
