    What a fantastic character this man is I love my cricket and the guy just adds real joy to the coverage a really good line up of pundits but Bumble is brilliant.

    Bumbles brilliant but he's part of the brilliant show that sky put on. They have some brilliant commentators now for Test cricket.

    We've tried to get him for years for our cricket club annual dinner, but he's never available due to his Sky commitments. His fee is north of £5000 for a 30 minute slot. Obviously a Category A* speaker.

    Bloody Sky messing things up again.....

    Most of the speakers we have are in the range of £1500 to £2500. It's madness I know, but we either have to pay the going rates or not have any speakers. I wish I could do it.......

    I listen to test match special on the radio.
    Henry Blofeld is a joy, my dear old thing, and when he gets going with Agnew and Boycott the day in my workshop flies by. They can make the inane wonderful, pigeons, cranes and butterflies.

    I'll do it for £1500, plus 5 pints and pork scatchings. My life as a Sunday footballer, a village cricketer and nowadays MAMIL. Entitled "The older I get, the better I was"

    Put a video on YouTube and we'll think about it! Pork Scratchings are bad for you though. They break your teeth.

    I love Bumble and Sky's cricket coverage. Just wish they would spend more time showing/explaining the field that has been set/position names. Its a right job trying to explain to my son where and why the fielders have been placed. When BBC used to show tests, they used to show a high wide shot between overs, so my Grandad used to teach me what the positions were called and the positives and negatives of each.

    Cant for the life of me see how any kids learn the field terms unless they actually play the game regularly.

    I prefer the BBC Test Match Special commentary team. Rather listen to guys like Henry, Tuffers, Vaughan and Geoffery. It's a shame their is a time delay between Sky/radio or i'd watch the Sky coverage on mute.

    I prefer the TMS coverage but I do like Bumble. I remember once they were discussing Oysters and how they put lead in your pencil. "Great if you've got somebody to write to."

    I don't it's awful to listen to. Painful. Boycott and Henry blowers? Nonsense. Talk utter sh*te. No, your Mother can't play test cricket or couldn't so shut it Boycott.
