It's weird, was pretty similar with Martin Crowe back in the day. Great thinker of the game who just got sucked into hyperbole, catch-phrases and his 'on-mic persona'. Was a shame because he really was very insightful. Came back after his first cancer diagnosis to a do a day of radio commentary at Eden Park during the 2014 test v India and he was just fantastic, one of my favourite days of listening to cricket ever.
When Crowe set up Cricket Max for Sky he brought in the league commentator Graeme Hughes. Crowe and Danny Morrison both copied his style.

Why the **** do you have an interview as he's walking off the field? Bloke's just made 150, maybe give him a few minutes in the changing shed before he has to head back out to field rather than getting a dozen meaningless words?
