    This would be entertaining (Tom Walsh smashing it), Jordie bowling bouncers etc but these commentary idiots are just painfully unfunny.
    Grant Elliot has come in to bat and they managed to say “hairy javelin” 3 times in ten seconds. Once might have been humorous……

    I like the alternative commentary. They’re great company on a long drive for work on Hauraki. Their bullshit talk can be bloody funny at times. The leprechaun doing the sideline interviews is an absolute dick though.

    I’m glad Billy Bowden doesn’t umpire at the top level anymore.

    Adam Parore will be embarrassed to get out like he did.

    Read looks like he needs a few protein shakes, looking very thin.

          @crucial They must be an acquired taste. Frankly, the voices in my head are funnier...

          On a slightly different note - I haven't played cricket in a while. What pitches do we have other than Bay Oval and ND variants these days?

            I must confess to not having acquired the same taste. They become quite repetitive after awhile.
            Do they still play cricket south of the Cook Strait?

              I’m not sure they’re that funny……

              Bloody hell that was a lovely four from Jordan. Like, a proper cricket shot.

                Bondy can still bring a bit of heat.

                That was quite a sharp bouncer to Read.

                      Read's innings is going a bit like the end of his rugby career. Not doing enough but somehow managing to stay in.

                        Hagley Oval is excellent.

                                    They're fucking relentless - I'll give them that.

                                    Certainly didn't go to the Richie Benaud school of commentary.

                                    I'm using my mute button discretely to pretend Richie is teaching them the value of silences.
