Shame, one of my favorites, though he is 74yo. Wish he did more summers down under

Rob Key there at sky Sports will carry on the quality for decades to come im sure...

Bumble was great, he’ll be missed. I suppose more time for guys like Warne and Haydos.

START THE CAR!!!

Borderline criminal he just did the one season as guest commentator at Nine (2013/14 I think and even then just for the ODIs and T20Is).

It is good that there were still guys like Bumble in their 70s and still offer good insights, and not be a walking and talking Abe Simpson meme (cough Chappelli cough).

Our border restrictions mean we'll likely be sending a B team to play Straya in the ODIs - real shame, but tests have to be the priority until the Govt accepts reality

Not sure we will be rushing to pick our test players either. Long year ahead if all tests go ahead, plus the T20 WC

Probably jetting out to Pakistan mid-late February for the 1st test on 3/3

I know Pat's dad Peter was a originally a baulko boy. Grew up in baulkham hills.

They moved out to penrith afterwards i am assuming as Pat was born in westmead.

Sean abbott is baulkham hills junior as well he played 3 years above me.
