Which English Commentator Will Come Commentate the Ashes?

[Holden]

Ok last time in the 2002/2003 ASHES we had Michael Atherton commentate with the Channel 9 crew, So who will it be this year??

Boycott??? Atherton???? Graham Thorpe???

I doubt it will be Boycott as he will be working with Five Live(bbc) I would have thought. I think Atherton stands a good chance probably. I don't think there's anyone else in the line is there?

[Holden]

Thorpe is in with a chance, since his playing his cricket in Australia

[Vrock]

That's true and he will be around seen as it is mid season in Australia. Although Graham Thorpe "commentator extraordinaire" doesn't really fit for me. He'll be inciteful with his track minded grind-it-out approach and mourn the fact that he didn't get picked for the previous Ashes...maybe.

Well for a start we technically already have Tony Greig and Mike Atherton should be the one to join him if they are discarding Mark Nicholas.
