"Welcome back. Yes folks, you could win a wonderful prize by quoting the most memorable "Classic Quip" of the World Cup...
Just send your entries to Nick's BB C/O Cricket Forum"
The other night while watching Gilly bat Ravi Shastri commented "He has an eye like a dead fish"...LOL Is that some sort of compliment or what?

LoL damn funny guys I want to hear more! I can't think of anything except for the guy on the radio who was calling Gillespie instead of Gilchrist and my family and I were wondering what the hell Gillespie was doing opening the batting, sure he bowled well but somehow I doubt we will see him opening for Australia one day!

Kerry O'Keefe on the radio is a classic of classics....his laugh used to annoy me but he is actually quite funny.
I love it when he tells a joke and he just laughs uncontrollably but no one else laughs at his joke...lol lol
The other commentators i like are the Indian commentators who come up with the best quotes and sayings etc....this was especially the case on the NZ tour. They are so funny

Last sundays ING cup game
Kerry O'Keefe "My county said we're not much of the opinion of using spinners in one day cricket....then later on they discovered I'm not much of a leg spinner" *insert Kerrys laugh here*
Bill Lawry "Well they're right"
much laughter coming from the back of the commentary box

I've been waiting for a while to get a good commentator's quip. Haven't heard anything of particular note but Simon O'Donnell's closing sentence, a few minutes ago, deserves a mention.
"Well, ladies and gentlemen, we look forward to your company for the next match on (whenever) between India and ... India.

LoL I have been listening real hard too because I like this topic it's very funny! Simon is a real goose isn't he! How about Dennis Commeti commentating during the ING cup by the way I kept thinking I was watching the footy but I wasn't! I swear channel nine have rocks in their heads!

Last night i think it was Tony Greig i could over hear talking on and on about how good Zimbabwe are in the field and how the total they will defend will seem bigger as they field so well. Not long after Gilchrist gets dropped...lol

"We had a bit of fun in the water. Quite a few guys went under."

I've just remembered a classic bill and tony chat
After a close caught behind decision.
Tony "lets look closely to see if we can see a red mark on the edge of his bat"
Bill "Tony...They're using a white ball"
Another from Tony
"The finger's umpire goes up"
