Dont know the whole story, but it was when there was only radio broadcasts, and the commentator was saying " So the baller has a short leg, long leg..". A woman who knew nothing about cricket was terrified how can a baller have 2 different sizes of legs

Hell no. I love listening to Holding's commentary.

There is only one way to describe it:

Smoood.

He is one hell of a prospect.

I am not sure of his current ability, but he is a prospect. If we can hold on to him, we may well have a world class bowker on our hands in a few years.

And also, I believe I said it was a rubbish method of bowling a googly, not he is rubbish.

Heard this on Commentary

Greg Chappell was saying he was playing with some Pakistani Player ( Mahmood I think), in an International XI V/S XYZ 1-Day game. They were in trouble 2 for 3, and that Pakistani player walked up to Greg and said "I think we should play for a draw"

Greg played the next ball and walked up to him and said "Mate you can't draw in a 1-day game"

I was watching the World Cup highlights DVD today and heard a really funny one in the match between Canada and the West Indies. A West Indian commentator (sorry, don't know who it was, but it wasnt Michael Holding) said something like "Davison hits it high in the air...Drakes is out there...and it goes over his head, he misjudges it completely. ..... he's got it?!! OH MY GOODNESS GRACIOUS!"

I laughed at that one for quite a while.
