Now I have always liked Nick Faldo but yesterday i found him rather annoying. He took charge and talked over Peter Allis quite a bit, especially when the winning putt was sunk.

David Harmon, Sean Kelly and Carlton Kirby are commentating.
As for studio presentation on British Eurosport, I know that James Richardson has been anchoring it, but I'm not sure who's been alongside him. Malcolm Elliott appeared in previous years but I'm not sure if he popped up this year. |

Can't answer your second question though. I'm guessing Simon Hughes |

Can't see why he wouldn't be available for the third Test, as it's after the Olympics

And I'm guessing that Alec Stewart - who normally does the one-dayers instead of Geoff Boycott for C5 - will be the replacement body to bring it back up to a four-man compliment (alongside Hughes, Boycott and Michael Vaughan).

There might be a South African over here they may use. I doubt Supersport have sent a team over, they didn't send one to New Zealand in the spring. |

Stewart usually does the updates on R5L, although they may use Butcher if he isn't on the Sky Highlights (or indeed someone else.)

that because they were members of the supersports team also commentating in that series, so they shared the coverage, like sky and ten cricket shared the coverage of the pakistan and sri lanka tour,
Quote:
can some one confirm if warne is doing the 2nd or 3rd test, i heard he was going back to australia.
Warne said to Atherton during the first test that his next game was the Second Test at Headingley. (After Atherton confirmed his locations for the T20 quarters.) Joking that he was on "strength and conditioning" training until then.

No only Barry Richards served as the "overseas" commentator for that series and he no longer works for Supersport.

Joking that he was on "strength and conditioning" training until then. Michael Haysman was seen in the oval test, he was talking to tim abraham in sky sports news. |

On one morning of a test Simon Doull said "a big welcome to our viewers in South Africa watching on Supersport". |

Sky's Commentary is one of the best in the business. Every other commentary teams are so biased. India's for example, and Mark Nicholas aside the Channel 9 mob are just are that slavering all over the Australian team.
PS Sky coverage is the best, but they shouldn't get too arrogant, in the early 2000s Channel 9 had the best coverage, now they are really crap, this would be my Dream Sky commentator team Bumble, Hussain, Atherton, touring commentator 1 and 2, Holding, Botham/Gower |

I watched plenty of the series and Richards was the only South African voice.

maybe supersports were not bothered to send their own team for this small series, when India toured west indies in 2011, Ten cricket did not send they own team and only gavasker was the Indian commentator, in the series, because many indian commentators were taking a holiday.
Last night's T20 quarter-finals: Presented by Ian Ward with Nick Knight and Mark Butcher at Trent Bridge Yorkshire v Worcestershire Royals Michael Atherton, David Lloyd, Paul Allott and Robert Croft Nottinghamshire Outlaws v Hampshire Royals Ian Ward, Nasser Hussain, Nick Knight and Mark Butcher |
