Unveiling the Ultimate Cricket Commentary Dream Team! PT2 👀| Bumble & Kimber

[@arjunps6776]

Tony Greig was simply awesome. Imagine all those Tendulkar's innings without Tony commentating on them. What a player!

[@fleetingflights]

Isa Guha and daylight for the ladies. Shes amazing

[@jackdaniel7538]

Mel Jones buddy??

[@integrateapproximate4000]

Fr she has a fantastic voice

[@niggszo]

Isa guha is fantastic.. but don’t know why she is not part of any of these world cups..

[@niggszo]

Mark howard

[@gts8919]

How about Anjum? 😂

[@pushkeypushak]

How could they not even mention Tony Cozier for more than 1 second??? He was amazing. I remember the times when the team was Harsha, Tony Greig, Ravi Shastri, Tony Cozier, Ian Chappel, Geoffrey Boycott and Alan Wilkins. The 90s version of them.

[@SwaroopKodur234]

They did. Everyone agreed that he thrives on radio

[@neyazahmed309]

Ian Smith in world cup 2019 final is generational

[@TheIdleButcher]

and a chop

[@akashkop]

ian bishop has to be one of the best .his research ,voice and eloquency make him better than the others.

[@vaibhavmishra8389]

Agree

[@BigWes95]

I agree. Very intelligent modern thinker. Was obviously a great bowler himself and has the best voice in the business. Can do all formats equally well which is also a skill in itself

[@rushishanishchara6796]

They just mentioned Harsha so they can put a thumbnail and attract Indian audiences. Nothing much.

[@1198rakesh]

That’s a pattern with this channel, they mention Indian names just to get Indian views. Dishonest Brit’s as always.

[@harpa012]

Modern bias here but this is my list: > Ian Bishop for sense of occassion. > Harsha for the joie de vivre of cricket > Mark Nicholas for wordplay > Nasser and Athers because they work well together. > KP for his edginess and calling it like he sees it

[@ShivaKumar-uz8sv]

Why not include DK

[@HumblePeon2]

Very good list here. Glad to see KP recognised too.

[@gts8919]

Where's Saba Karim?

[@sudhakarbhat6396]

Harsha is a joker and story teller.

[@harpa012]

I find his shirts more interesting. ​@@ShivaKumar-uz8sv

[@viplovezoad5523]

richie benaud, Mark nicholas , tony Greig, ravi shastri, bill lawry , geoffrey boycott , mark taylor , harsha bhogle , michael holding , tony cozier , david llyod , ian smith , ramiz raja , mark howard, michael Slater, simon doull ... grown up listening their cricket commentary.. i simply love their voice.

[@Adi-oc2hd]

It was all good until Ramiz Raja🤢

[@surajsaharan825]

ramiz raja isn't as good as everyone else. isha guha needs to be mentioned

[@ron101ist]

I just love these discussions, you just can't not love bumble's personality...

[@sapsm1867]

Harsha Bhogle, Tony Cozier, Ian Bishop, Nasser Husssin, Richie Bernaud are my favorites..! Such a pleasure listening to him (was a pleasure listening to Richie)

[@TheS-Man]

Ravi Shastri’s BOWLED’M 😂😂

[@chasindigo]

If you went around corner to take a dump, and came back and India is all out 😂😂😂

[@dikshantmittal144]

Michael Slater, Mark Taylor, Mark Nicholas..my favourite commentry trio of all time

[@zainhijudeen9237]

Mark Nicholas, Ian Smith, Mark Howard, Harsha Bhogle, Nasser Hussain, Ian Ward, Mel Jones, Tony Greig : Edit : the late Robin Jackman and Alan Wilkins

[@SwaroopKodur234]

Ian Ward can make anything sound enticing. He's so underrated

[@ThePeious]

Add Adam Gilchrist with them

[@jishnupratimmudoi5461]

How can you forget Ravi Shashtri?

[@SwaroopKodur234]

@@jishnupratimmudoi5461 Yeah, Shastri over Bhogle for me

[@BigWes95]

As an English man I can't stand ian ward. Just a very boring man

[@PiyushScorchers]

This are the sort of programs needed on star sports not the ones where all they do is just formalities.

[@AlastairMehl]

Neil Manthorp is wonderful - incredible humour and insight! Shaun Pollock is great - very intelligent and astute. Robin Jackman - such a pleasure to listen to.

[@rgfitness6425]

Akash Chopra >>>>>>>all

[@siddharthjangam8103]

I love Ian bishops, he does all his homework about pitch, stats even newest players.

[@sayedafif739]

Among the former cricketers great at analysing the technicalities, I love Ricky Ponting on commentary too

[@shubh089]

Sunil gavaskar makes me mute the sounds. They should give an option to switch to stump mike

[@1198rakesh]

He is their coz of the Marathi lobby in BCCI. He has lost his mojo and a lot of respect. Imagine he was at Kanpur for the Bangladesh T20. Man is greedy.

[@prob6820]

Tony Cozier used to do tv commentary with channel 9 in Australia when the WI toured in the 70s/80s and 90s. He should be counted.

[@joglekarswapnil]

He was more or less commentating in England only I think but loved Paul Allot too. Gower, Botham are fantastic too. Mike Haysman, Bill Lawry, Mark Nicholas, Tony Greig, Harsha Bhogle, Ian Chappell, Tony Cozier, Ian Smith for me.

[@forinfotv]

Richie, Tony Greig, ian Smith, ian bishop, nasseir hussain, mel jones, Harsha bhogle - purely from a cricket fan perspective

[@tomrichards4986]

You don’t pick David gower just because he flown a plane over Queensland - LEGEND Bring back Gower Shout out to Hythe & Dibden Cricket Club Cheers

[@karun036]

Not sure how come I did not come across this channel before. I really like the arguments...

[@kareneastaugh2365]

To be honest I could listen to Bumble do commentary all day. He to me makes cricket fun and interesting. I'm old school so I would go Aggers, Jim Maxwell, Peter West, Geoff Boycott, Fred Trueman and definitely Richie Benaud - the voice of cricket. Xx

[@CricketEngland]

Radio commentary is far better than TV commentary and when I watch cricket it’s always TV on and link it up to the Radio commentary, On Radio you have to paint more of a picture of what’s going on rather that just saying a few words even few minutes. Best statistician ever on TV or Radio was Brad Frindall (The Bearded Wonder)and Andy Zaltzman (Zalts) they real do their homework before each match and know their stats better than anyone My all time commentary team would be Johnathan Agnew aka ‘Aggers’ (main presenter) Henry Blofeldaka ‘Blowers’ (Commentator) Christopher Martin-Jenkins aka ‘CMJ’ (Commentator) Brian Johnson aka ‘Johnners’ (Commentator) Alison Mitchell (Commentator) Alex Hartley (Summariser) Phil Tufnell aka ‘Tuffers’ (Summariser) Graham Swann (Summariser) Alistair Cook (Summariser) Tony Cozier (West Indies games) Jim Maxwell (Ashes matches) Prakash Wakankar (Indian games) Brad Feindall aka ‘The Bearded Wonder’ (Stats) No one else would do it any better

[@TheOfficialEmirati]

Daniel Norcross? I like him

[@inquisitivesahil]

Atleast they mentioned Michael Holding at the end.

[@shreyasmahendra6809]

They mentioned him in the first one

[@TheSTEPHENMC5]

Shawn Pollock is also great!

[@nikunjdixit1175]

Harsha Bhogle, Ian Smith, Tony Greig, Ian Chappell, Ian Bishop are the names that come to my mind when I think of commentators.

[@srini1635]

Marc Nicholas to host, Nass, Warnie, Athers, Smudge, lawry, Gregg and one of Holding/Bishop.

[@yadwindersingh3821]

Love these podcasts ❤! it elaborates a lot of professionalism in cricket ❤

[@dinkin_flicka14]

Ian Smith, Isa Guha, Nas and Simon Doull.

[@oneilblake8400]

Ian Bishop any day of the week, any format, any two teams playing the game of cricket.

[@adamhunter9545]

Ian Smith simply has to be in. He’s fantastic

[@karthikpatra]

Boycott for Nasser, nobody spoke more direct than him. And his Yorkshire drawl was gold! Chappell for Lawry - Better voice and he made certain predictions during the match which forced viewers to stick on and see whether he got it right. Cozier for Bishop - His observations as a broadcaster and commentator were spot on, especially in the West Indies. Isa Guha is by far the best female commentator out there, her charisma, voice, and humour are spot-on.

[@mayankdewli1010]

Best : geoffrey boycott, tony greig, bill lawry , Hussain, bishop Worst: manjrekar, gavaskar, harsha , russel arnold

[@shalompatole5710]

[@theraabbot]

I did enjoy this discussion (both parts), however what saddens me is the bias towards an ENG / AUS here (marginal WI / NZ). Where are the Indian, South African, Pakistanis, Sri Lankan commentators is this list? There are greats from each of these nations.

[@123canuckfan]

Isha guha guys! How do you miss that one?

[@indiarocks5731]

She is brown

[@DadaurBetatravelvlogs]

Harsha is a fine Commentator 😊 but my all time fav is Bill Lawry an all time legend. I also liked Tony Grieg, Ian Chappel, Richie Benaud, David Gower, Geoffary Boycott and Micheal Holding 😊 My Fav Sportsanchor is John Dykes 😊

[@samgh-nw1sh]

jarrod is so good, isn't he

[@PhillipGabriel]

Among female commentators it is Isa Guha, Mel Jones & Kass Naidu (South Africa).

[@omer6472]

Urooj Mumtaz is going to make it big soon enough

[@khantk2732]

Very biased commentator.

[@CricketEngland]

If it’s women commentators you are after you can’t do better than Alison Mitchell and Alex Hartley from TMS

[@SwaroopKodur234]

Isa Guha is box-office stuff

[@Morhaw]

I really enjoy Hartleys comms. She has an infectious enthusiasm of the game, coupled with good knowledge

[@daveborder7751]

Hartley's voice gets on my nerves-reminds me of George Formby.

[@TheSTEPHENMC5]

I can barely listen to test match special when Alex Hartley comes on, am I really missing the talent that makes her so ubiquitous?

[@HazHaroon]

Alan Wilkins??

[@parkjohns9696]

not mentioning isha guha is a shocker

Alison Mitchell must be mentioned. She’s unbelievable.

[@salhj112]

Mr. Mute Buttons makes every list for me

[@nastybadger-tn4kl]

Best commentator is LISA! No one else. Period

Mel Jones for me amongst the Women. Bill Lawry is the ultimate one for me. Harsha is a narrator for me

[@shinodbm]

Isa Guha

[@abhikdas3652]

Some others. Henry Blofeld. Robin Jackman.

[@kottinaresh89]

Isa guha ❤

[@EdBailey-o9f]

Mark Nicholas is one of the best commentators of the bunch.

[@vyseerx]

Tony Grieg, Ian Chappell, Ian smith, Ian Bishop, Harsha Bhogle, and Ravi shastri in that order...

[@Adi-oc2hd]

Isa Guha Natalie Germanos Katey Martin Ebony Rainford Brent Kass Naidoo Mel Jones Lisa Sthalekar Some of the best female commentators

[@rubymohan2144]

Former cricketers who make boring commentary... Sanjay Manjrekar😂

[@DK-dq8bu]

Richie Benaud, unbeatable. Harsha doesn’t comment,he just blabbers and yaps 😠🤨

[@somnathdas9276]

Mark Nicholas ❤

[@daveborder7751]

Isa Guha is amazing as a host & as a commentator, who emotes excitement like Lawry-she really gets the production side of things better than anybody since probably Benaud. I would probably have her as the host & Benaud on commentary-grew up with him & he is the best I have heard/seen-he knew the art of less is more, something sadly lacking from most of the commentators in this era-especially the Australians.

[@akshaysonawale3150]

My personal favourite was ian Chappell and tony graig.

[@naveengoyal9702]

Ian Chappell and mikes Nickolas

[@neilgovender7450]

II cant believe no one suggested Botham and Chappell. that would be unreal

[@RahatBawri]

Geoffrey Boycott, David Hookes, John Arlott - please mention 😅

[@Phymaths]

When it comes to women commentators, Isa Guha is the best one in my opinion.

[@bhavyamankad479]

How can you omit Ian Chappell

[@EdBailey-o9f]

He loves wedding cake - funny or what - think it went over Kimber's head

[@SwaroopKodur234]

I suppose it's fair to say that the English (people from this thing called England) make the best commentators because they are bloody good storytellers to begin with. They enunciate, they pause and they build things up just as required but the problem is some of them are too damn insinuatory as well - Nasser Hussain, for instance, cannot go to bed without a small diss towards the IPL or Indian cricket in general. But he is still exceptional on air and so are his compatriots Atherton, Butcher, Morgan, etc. My personal favourite storyteller is David Gower but the best f*ckin voice out there belongs to Ian Ward

[@HazHaroon]

[@geojose3081]
