I'm probably in a minority but I actually think he has a good voice for commentary. Talks complete **** and never be allowed near the mic for that reason, but still.

****. this guy. Guilty of culpable homicide (lol 3 year suspended sentence) and I have to listen to this guy saying that god is on the side of India?

I thought it was bad but now I'm actually feeling sick.

Always wanted to know whether Sidhu is also like this when he commentates in Hindi. Can anyone confirm?

 

[hendrix]

I'm actually struggling to believe that the image-obsessed BCCI could allow a man who beat an old man to death over a car accident to commentate in matches in which they participate.

Yeah he's not too bad actually.

 

[Jono]

No doubt you learned Hindi from constantly going to the Indian restaurant around the corner and eating plenty of vindaloo.

He obviously doesn't have a great command of English but I don't think it's his main problem. The extended metaphors are annoying but his biggest problem is that his outlook on cricket/life is just really ridiculous. He'd be crap in any language IMO.

At least looks like he can club them for runs at any time even if he doesn't.

 

[Prince EWS]

One of the most majestic batsmen in the world to watch against straight pies though.

 

[Jono]

My point was does he use the stupid extended metaphors in Hindi.

Also, his English is fine for mine.

I always figured he used the extended metaphors because he didn't know how to express his point speaking properly, owing to his average command of English. Maybe he's just weird though.

.. which is I guess what you were asking.

 

[Jono]

Yes, it exactly was what I was asking
