Just for a bit of fun on is day of good cricket news, if you only had the choice of these 3 how would you put them in order?

And there's no turning the sound down and listening to anything else.

Nicholas
Swann
Vaughan

Ummmm. I'm gonna go

Nicholas I can put up with the overexcitement
Swann
Vaughan

The last two are a mighty difficult choice there's I love myself in everything they do.
Might swap

Vaughan
Swann. That's a bit better.

T10 highlights are on Sky later I think. Swann is commentating on that at the minute.
I think for a test match he will be alright, just playing up as it�s Cricket on Crack. Same as Danny Morrison, perfectly able to commentate just puts on a show for white ball cricket.

Awful. I once sat through an evening of a theatre tour he was doing with Aggers and be is every bit as insufferable in person

Dunno about anyone else I've been pleasantly surprised by Cook on the radio, I never thought he enjoyed being asked questions or the media in general. If he is presenting the C4 coverage good for him.

Same with Atherton, one word answers in interviews and ends up being very good in the media-I actually think he is the best of the lot at the moment.

I guess being England captain is a streasful job, once that stress is removed a job in the media seems like a good gig again.

Swann sounds like someone who would be fabulous company for 15 mins and after half an hour you want to punch him.

Which is what Gough did....alledgely.

Ah well something different. At least we get to watch some more cricket. I see that Star sports had Butcher and Knight on their English speaking team and I dont particularly rate either of them

So it seems like BT and Sky will bid it out for the Ashes. Would love to be there but its looking more and more unlikely

If stories are to be believed Amazon are going to join that battle for the Ashes.

Expected to be confirmed on C4 later today. Sky and BT both tried to hijack the deal at the last minute Tuesday to no avail according to the Times. Separate deal for white ball but that�s expected to be C4 too. Interesting to read that ITV were interested too.

This would be really interesting, their 6 Nations coverage was brilliant.

Non-exclusive deal so another broadcaster could also be showing it.

Coverage led by someone called Rishi Persad. BBC doing their social coverage so rules out Vaughan and cook (I think)

Anyone else trying to work out what kind of horrible sleep cycle will let them get up at 4am for a few weeks?
