Talksport Commentary

[brandon]

Might be an unpopular opinion, but I’ve really enjoyed listening to their coverage of this Test match.

Manthorp and Kimber were excellent just now during Tea, they also have Gareth Batty on now and he is an EXCELLENT summariser. Love listening to him explaining bowlers actions and release points and the overall direction of what’s happening infront of him.

It’s not TMS, but they’re doing a decent enough job as the only option…

I love Manthorp. Easily one of my favourite commentators to listen to
Plus Batts is just Batts.

TMS is shite now anyway imo.

Aggers can be an insufferable twit, and Vaughan is a c*nt, but other than that I think it's OK.

Certainly isn’t what it was.

The only people I find really good to listen to are usually the opposition guests to be honest.

I think Daniel Norcross is very good, Simon Mann is excellent, Tuffers is entertaining, Swann offers great insight about being a top level spinner (when he's actually talking about cricket), and although his voice is irritating I like Dagnell too

Vic Marks sendvsme to sleep, mind

I'm sure I read Bumble will be part of the TalkSport team for the final two tests. He's popped up on Hawksbee and Jacobs' afternoon show a few times recently.

Ah the good old days of Jack Bannister being woken while falling asleep watching Sky cricket coverage to then give his "updates" on TS

Very funny but chaotic
