Commentary team for World Twenty20

The commentary team for the World Twenty20 (ESPN STAR SPORTS) team comprises of the usual suspects, with Saurav Ganguly being the lone exception. For the record Ganguly makes his debut as a commentator.

Here is the list of commentators:

Saurav Ganguly, Wasim Akram, Sanjay Manjrekar, Alan Wilkins, Harsha Bhogle, Nasser Hussain, David Lloyd, Ian Chappell, Simon Doull, Kepler Wessels, Ian Bishop, Ranil Abeynaike and Athar Ali Khan.

Though none of them is going to light up my day, I would love to hear a combination of Sanjay Manjrekar with David Lloyd and Nasser Hussain with Ian Chappell.

Which combination would you prefer?

Q,

Tony Greig ruled out because of the ICL connection. The other too are surprising omissions.

Viswanathan said...

Pan,

On mute- good one. :)

GANGULY AKRAM AND CHAPPELL IN MY TEAM. HARSHA BHOGLE, SIMON DOULL ARE NOT MY FAVOURITES RANIL IS ALSO OKAY SO ALSO HUSSEIN.

Harsha Bhogle - the only decent one in the whole line up

Kepler Wessels - I don't know why I have a soft spot for the Saffers!

Ganguly - coz I am curious

and Wasim Akram - coz I like that guy :)

I am happy to hear Bumble again.

SG as a commentator... what a farce. I remember this guy proudly and boldly proclaiming in an interview on how and why he will never be a commentator.

Now he is going to piss off the rest of the commentators by having someone hold the mic for him.

lviss,

Ranil is pain. Let us see how SG fairs.
