I enjoy Geoffrey Boycott and Alison Mitchell together on TMS. Old fashioned meets modern.

Might come over a bit old fashioned here, but I remember the days when Ted Laker done an hour and then Richie did his hour. Camera at one end only. Enjoyed it just as much as today’s dozen commentators, analysts, guys in the studio etc.
If there was one camera and one commentator now it would be dreadful!
I never appreciated Benaud enough at the time.
Had he not witnessed half of the test matches ever played by the time he finished?
It's the only reason I pay for SKY Sports. Couldn't give a toss about the football - far too much of it on now.Tbf, to Sky the whole package of cricket, through the commentary, presentation and everything really is superb.
They do a fanastic job showing vasts amount of cricket over the year to us, it's not cheap sky, but the cricket coverage is very very good.

Did a fair few- over here every summer residing in a little cottage at Chapel en le FrithI never appreciated Benaud enough at the time.

Quite enjoyed listening to Steven Finn on TMS in NZ.
I was also brought up on Arlott, Laker, Benuad and TMS. The thing that I really dislike now is the attempt to bring in "fashionable" phrases for more well-known actions.
Buzzers - FFS they are overthrows! I had never heard of a knuckle ball until the last few years. I blame the Essex boy trying to be something that he is not - popular!
