when aftab hit the six of gillespies ball cause the score to tie....he commented "take that australia"

as a commentator he should be neutral and not express his joy so profoundly, definitely not by attacking the opposing team..
lets face it, he is there as an international commentator, not some khoda box....

whats annoying and more funny is his pronounciation of cricketers name...he calls ricky ponting ..."pointing"....simply annoying in a live telecast in national tv....

I agree, during the Zimbabwe tour he also got Stuart Matsikanery confused with Dinesh Kaneria of Pakistan, and ended up calling him 'Stuart Matsikaneria'!

Sadly, he is also the best English speaking cricket commentator we have.
