Only one issue here - I know nothing about the game. I guess that's why I have the Charles Colville slot.

Here's a couple of questions for you - who would get the role of the 'analyst'? Also, who would fulfil the Dermot Reeve role of (i) being a p**** (ii) conducting self-glamourising interviews with other players (iii) doing the end of match presentations?

You HAVE to have rachael and milo/ernest as your opening commentators in reeve/athers or even tony grieg/bil laurie -12th man style combo. That would indeed be priceless.

I think we'd be taken off the air after five minutes.

The 'Analyst'....Definitely Rachael and Milo....The optimist....Definitely Ern (We are 8-90 but if Hoggard can stay around we should be able to conjure up some runs)....End of Match Presentations...Mike....Self Glamourising Interviews...Richie Benauds Love Child and myself...Being a pr**k....Can't say on a public forum!!!!!!!!!

12th man impersonations....All mi mates tell laugh stupid when I chuck on a voice of most of the commentators, although I can't master the Mark Nicholas/Ian Healy roles yet....

I guess the only part not yet taken is the Tony Greig $**T stirring role!!!! Whos gonna be able to give it to Warnie!!!

Havent got the latest ones but my richie benaud impressions became legardary. My max walker ones were OK and Tony grieg, bill laurie were decent enough.

I'll put that on my list to do "get 12th man back catalogue"

There, done.

Actually Rich, we could do it in tandem....I could take Bill Lawry, Ian Chappell and Mark Taylor and Simon ODonnell whilst you take Richie Benaud and Tony Greig, possibly Mark Nicholas....Fair job...

I can do bluntness. I remember when I interviewed the Doves - just after "There Goes the Fear" got to number 2 in the charts after the single only being available for sale for a week. My opening question was, "There Goes the Fear... Cynical marketing ploy?"

I think as an opening gambit to Warne "So, do you feel you had enough weight loss pills when you had the opportunity?". Also, can't resist a good old bit of stirring. So, maybe some questions about chuckers wouldn't go amiss.

All you need to do a 'Mark Nicholas' is crap hair and being able to shout 'crackerjack' at inopportune moments.
