Their commentators aren't much better. I remember watching Moeen bowl Virat through the gate and the commentary (after Virat had reviewed the "decision) was something like

"Amazing poise and technique, beautiful swing of the bat, just so unlucky the ball snuck through and hit the stumps"
 
Hows that missed? :lol:

Just their nature innit. And cricket to them is what football is to us. Ooooohs when it flies miles wide, huge roar when a player runs with it on the half way line. It's just they have higher pitched voices generally so you'd have to image the SoL full of those kids that used to get free tkts in the clockstand seats.

When Crawley was out, the first thing the Indian commentator gleefully said was something like 'and another failure for Crawley'. No mention of the ball or the shot - just had to get a little dig in.

They're so f@cking biased, it's embarrassing.
