Joyous commentary by Tony greg, bill lawry, richie benaud, ian chappel

I miss their commentary so much. In fact, I can't watch replays of the 2005 Ashes series without the Channel 4 commentary that we had here in England. The Sky Sports commentary just isn't the same. Channel 4 had Richie Benaud, Tony Greig, Mike Atherton, Michael Slater and others and it was just so much better in my opinion.

The Channel 9 music was brilliant and really got you revved up. We had Soul Limbo here in England on the BBC which was just as good. I miss both. Cricket really was better in the 1980's and 1990's. Even though we lost every Ashes series in the 1990's!!

"Hail Headley they'll be crying" Brilliant commentary from Bill Lawry. I miss the commentators we used to listen to. Greig, Lawry, Benaud, Chappell, Cozier, Holding, Blofeld etc..

@@Mozartboy55 there is no class in cricket these days, all slogging, no techinque or class. bowling is crap too, just speed without any kind of length or movement. Mark wood is a good bowler though and james anderson. No other bowler comes close to the old ones. Todays cricket is not competitive unlike old one. Players are like tired and filled with ego, no aggression or anything

Great test match at the MCG. England fought right until the end in a supposedly easy chase of 175. Don't forget Aussies were 3/127 at one stage.

It’s very nice to see this, but the editing is somewhat biased, in favour of Australia. I’m English so maybe am a bit partisan, but the ‘Limey’ content focuses on the falling wickets, whereas the Oz footage favours Runs being scored. And yes, that is a huge chip on my shoulder😢

I have to disagree. He performed well for England on a number of occasions, especially in the West Indies, where he took 8 wickets in an innings twice. His best bowling figures is 8-53, followed by 8-75. He was a very underrated bowler.

England made over 300 runs once. They used 8 bowlers over the 5 tests. They scored 2 hundreds combined over the series & Australia scored 8! Rain saved them from a defeat in the first test & their only victory was courtesy of an almighty batting collapse. The other 3 tests were won by 7 wickets, 205 runs & 98 runs. They were comprehensively beaten over 5 tests & I’m confused how anyone could see this series as one that England should have won.

@@cameronduncan7506the one test we did win, in Melbourne, was down to our bowling, rather than a bad collapse. We brought about the loss of wickets with some excellent play by Headley and Gough. I agree with you about the rest of the series though. In regards to the Melbourne test, Australia seemed to have problems chasing small totals batting last back then. They were one of the best teams we've ever seen in the 1990's and the first half of the 2000's but that was their one weakness. In my opinion anyway.

No he wasn't. Watch his innings of 185 during the test series against South Africa in Johannesburg in 1995/96. Or the way he stood up to Allan Donald during the 1998 test series against South Africa in England. Donald was bowling some rapid stuff and Atherton played it brilliantly.
