TBF, I grew up listening to Tim and as a pure commentator he is very good. His personal opinions and outside commentary speaking is pathetic though.
When he was at his best Bruce used to do a lot of research on the game of footy and was able to slot in those little anecdotes seamlessly. He hasnât been the same since Commetti retired. They complemented each other very well.
He hasnât been good for at least 10 years.
Yeah he and Commetti were both going down hill fast. Commetti did the right thing and retire, Bruce held onâŚdeliciously.
Jimmy Maher and Jim Wilson also on board but not noted above.
Bruce might be doing a lunchtime cricket show type thing not so much commentary from what Iâve heard
They both just became caricatures of themselves.

Cyrilâs retirement could put Bruce right over the edge.

South Africa playing 3 quicks in Sri Lanka, Sri Lanka donât even bother with one.
Maharaj has taken 11 out of 12 the Jaapies have.
SL 338 & 2/103 vs SA 124
11/13 for Maharaj now with Mendis being run-out.
Sri Lanka with a lead of 365 with seven wickets in hand.
Itâs rather telling that neither C7 nor FS wanted Clarke to commentate for them.

He does that every night.
Not a fan of Kohli generally, but a super innings to score a great hundred against the Poms. His runs are very important for for making a game of it. India 9/226 in reply to Englandâs 287.

Scored 92 of the last 105 runs by the team. Brilliant, ugly knock (was dropped twice I think).
And then England lost Cook before stumps. Test match cricket at its best.
