Agreed with Athlai's point, but it's occasionally good value to have a ring fielder / captain like Maxwell get on the mic who genuinely don't seem to mind having a chat.

Of course, that's fine in domestic comps like the BBL. In internationals? Nah thanks

Not Terrible
IE the pivot towards having a ring fielder captain and listening in to tactics with the bowlers. It's mildly interesting but certainly isn't offensive li
In the recent NZ domestics, they ended up distracting the Wellington captain and he didn't see there were too many men out.

Ah I see. I think they've got a better balance in the BBL and they're nowhere even as close to being as intrusive as they were during the CH10 days or a few years back.

No having to listen to Freddie Flintoff on the boundary. Thank **ck
