I just cannot take her seriously. The short shorts are not helping.

Top move imho. Some refinements do need to be made (sexist alert):-

1. More attractive the better
2. Less clothes the better
3. She was a bit crap with the mallet - some gym work needed

With regards to Hammer, you haven't got too much any sex appeal Jason so I don't think you have much to lose.

Just saw these!, Shes bad with the mallet man!

I don't particularly like it, I liked the other guy they had. It's a stupid gimmick.

Can't take her seriously, i don't think she knows her stuff.

A side note - i love that stump where the mallet it.

If they are going to stoop to bringing in the skirt to tempt people, then they need so wove with more yummy appeal!
Also it's obvious she is not an expert. The biggest giveaway for me was when she taps the bat with the mallet - she was tapping right up by the labels and nowhere even close to the sweet spot! That's a fail!
Needs bigger pecs to hit the mallet harder too  :)
But I guess they are testing the water to see if they get decent feedback?

I preferred Frazer doing the reviews.

She sounds scripted, like she's reciting what to say. And I visible flinched when she was hitting the bat with the mallet, almost took the edge of the bat off!
Sure you could have found a female knowledgeable cricketer to do the reviews.

That's comical. Although she sounds about as knowledgable as the rest of the staff they have (yes that's an insult).

Who cares about the technicalities, we are all experts anyway...I like her, I now know where to shop from.

I can tap it with mallet myself.
