Very unusual - has he ever commentated on any Twenty20 games, domestic or international, before? The money must be good for him to be doing this gig.
Is the Big Bash going to be on Sky again this year? |

That is a bit of a surprise. Pretty sure he doesn't commentate on the T20 Internationals on Sky because he's not a big fan of the format.

Exactly. It's pretty obvious he thinks it's "Mickey Mouse" cricket, so he'll have to suppress his genuine thoughts while he's commentating on the Big Bash. It'll probably sound quite odd with "forced" enthusiasm - might be worth tuning in just to see how he copes!

Besides, the games only last 3 hours. I'd have thought that would be ideal for his busy schedule of playing golf, drinking wine, fishing etc. |

he is popular for his hindi commentary mainly because of his metaphors and similes, but it sounds better when it is in hindi, but not in English. |

Will Michael Holding be a part of Sky's commentary team for any of the remaining Ashes tests?

Did Sky have any studio presentation for the T20 qualifiers today or did they just take the host feed?
