In the commentary box Sunil Gavaskar dissected, bisected the Australians, while Ian Chappell waited three overs before commenting on Ganguly’s dismissal even as Harsha Bhogle needled him. For a garrulous, straight from the bat guy, this was curious. And when he did break his silence it was to disagree with Gavaskar about Clarke’s catch and wonder who Benson questioned, when the replays clearly showed it was Ponting.
Suggestion: Time for Star Sports to hold a contest for good umpires on its Dream Job show and for Star Cricket to get neutral commentators. And remember, no more monkey business.
