Refreshing to listen to...they just do their job, and describe the action. Their accents are easy to understand, and they speak well too.

Keep up the good work:

Too many commentators from Australia, England, India and NZ are arrogant and annoying.

They are very very good. Pommie set the standard

In reply to doosra

Agree re Pommie -the best on the planet today

I endorse fully that thr Xim commies are as good as the come to be honest. In fact it's because of the commentators I don't support some countries.


Bangladesh comes to mind

In reply to mikesiva

The Zim commentators are very fair and neutral. They say it as it is.

In reply to doosra

Pommies set what standard.

I regularly mute the games when Hingland commentating.

They are arrogant, just like the Hindiean.

I cannot listen to Hindia or Pommies

The only great thing about the commies is
the session with analysis, forgot the name.

I rank in worse order first;

1. Pommies - arrogant players can do no wrong.
2. Hindia - arrogant n explains dem bad pitches
3. Ozzies - arrogant and criticize other countries.
4. Sri Lanka - a bit arrogant and lifeless at times
5. Wondies - stupid remarks. Don't seem to know the game.

worst I've ever heard.

That's my opinion. Everyone entitled to his/her thoughts.

In reply to TanteMerle

Agree. as long as you don't mix up Pommies(Brit) with Pommie the former Zimbabwe player
who had a brief career before moving to the broadcast booth. he is very good.

In reply to TanteMerle

Mpumelelo "Pommie" Mbangwa - the best indeed

In reply to TanteMerle
You nailed it

Pommies are excellent football commentators, too! I have a weakness for the British accent, to be honest!

POMMIE MBANGWA!!!ERR sorry didn't see that Chrissy n Narps already responded

i agree, too many commies talking about their past glories.
That is why i like a lot of the new women commentators.

In reply to Conorboy

Tbf, Isa Guha is classy.

In reply to Seechy

Isa is a star

In reply to doosra

My deepest apologies all.

Pommie is the best to me too.

I read Pommies instead of Pommie.




PS. I'm not watching the Wondies series live.
I have no desire to watch them beat up on lower minnow than themselves.
I will watch some of the RSA series.
That is a true test as RSA good at home.

In reply to doosra

Isa should stick to women's games.

Das is all i gine sey bout she.

In reply to TanteMerle

why? have you ever listened to her call the men's game?

In reply to TanteMerle

That is sexist.

In reply to doosra


I understand that Dean du Plessis is a visually impaired commentator.

I wonder how that works!
