Kasprowicz the man to go. I will never forget the end of that test match and that is as much down to Richie as it was the result. RIP

Was the voice of cricket in my youth - i'm actually gutted.

Like the passing of Bill McLaren or Sid Waddell - the sport will never sound the same again to so many people.

RIP Richie (In passing, you have given the Aussies another motivation to come over here and give us a hammering this summer!)

RIP Richie Benaud, truly a legend on the field and in the commentary box.
