This entirely ^^^
Cricket back then was Cricket. Summer holidays sat in my parents back garden, BBC Radio 4 TMS on quietly, then ever so often to escape the heat putting BBC 1 on and watching the Test on TV.....sheer bliss.
Now it's all shouting, and not commentating, pink balls, coloured clothing etc....life and times do change...but the lovely sport of Cricket has been ruined
Love listening to these two whenever NZ play England in a Test Series.

I remember lying in bed listening to the 1986-87 Ashes in Australia and not needing the pictures it was described so well. I dare say other boys my age went into school with bleary eyes for very different reasons..!

Good commentators realise that the people who watch and listen to cricket, only want a) thoughtful insight and b) the benefit of their experience in telling us what has just happened/ought to happen next. No over-the-top nonsense from them when a wicket falls or a 6 is hit.
