Who is that curly haired buffoon on the Ram Slam. Is it wrong to say he needs a slap?

Forgot about this one- batsmen blatantly showing off their sponsor's sticker on the back of their bat, when they salute the dressing room after getting a 50/100. They've ruined the whole salute for me now - pretty much everyone does it!

For me Aussie and NZ commentators saying 4 for 130, obviously is the wrong way around!

What do you expect them to do if they are being paid to show a sponsor on their stick. Blame the ICC for allowing it, not the players.

Ramiz Raja, Sanjay Manjrekar and Shane Warne commenting as they don't understand concept of neutral commentary.

To me, it doesn't matter how good you are. Sport is all about playing and competing. Whatever you do in cricket and in sport, enjoy it, be positive and try to win.

I'm sure its going to become one... Comments on James Taylor's height every innings.

Mark Nicholas, in general. Not sure if its just him or his efforts to be an Aussie supporter for the benefit of channel 9 when a bit of a neutral view wouldn't hurt.

Aussie rules football players or commentators giving commentary. Shouldn't be allowed to enter the ground IMHO. Shouldn't they all be in hibernation this time of year?
