I seriously doubt that. I also seriously doubt he'd be interested in starting again on another network"retire" = nobody wants him

That wasn't a problem for me, I cut my cricket teeth at the Adelaide Oval n the 80s, now that was old and white. Lords has a good atmosphere, crowd is knowledgeable and every Australian who goes there for the first time remarks on how close you are to the pitch. Plus it's absolutely dripping in history, should be on any cricket tragic's bucket list if possible.
Isa Guha was the best thing about the Triple M broadcast, she'll be great for Foxtel.
Mel Jones is the best female Australian commentator as well. Seven really need to get Allison Mitchell involved, she's the other really established female commentator that would fit well.
I think that probably sums it up perfectly.I seriously doubt that. I also seriously doubt he'd be interested in starting again on another network
This makes me so happy if it’s a sign of things to come. Hopefully they can get someone like Holding or equally good international commentators.
9 really botched that, besides Ian Smith they didn’t even try it outside of the ashes.
Harbajhan would spice things up. To be honest though, why hasn't there been more overseas countries that play in Australia have their past champions invited to commentate? Kallis, Dravid, Tendulkar. I saw Sir Viv doing BBL, why not extend this like they have to Holding?Hopefully 7 or Fox get Ganguly for at least this summer.
It shows that they’ll look at international people at least, not just the boys club that 9 did.I love the hires but not Vaughany. Dude is not good. I would have loved if they got Nass, Wardy, or Athers and Allison Mitchell.
The News article linked earlier seemed to suggest that Guha and Jones would be doing womens BBL. I'd be so, so disappointed if they were confined to that.
Off topic, but how did you get in? I'm sure I've read that the whole ground is full up these days with various types of members. Can you only get in as a part of organised fan tours?
nah hussey was straight up useless in all his previous stints
Isa and Huss are nice additions.

Meh, just because he was tolerable doesn't actually make him good. If Nine's team back then wasn't so appalling he'd rightly be seen as pretty ordinary, while he didn't get sidetracked much I haven't really heard him say anything interesting.I beg to differ.
Don't disagree with this, there's no doubting he's a tragic which is always a plus in my book. Maybe he just needs some coaching.I stated when he began on Nine that he has the potential to be a commentator like Bill Lawry (whose voice is hardly a delight to the ears). But he needs to be placed in a position where he can learn how to do that in order to bring it out.
Hussey lives and breathes cricket; with time and training, he could be great. Perhaps he was just a little reluctant at first about being completely honest about players he had played with.
