Jarrod Kimber on cricket commentary, Kohli’s captaincy and batting woes of this decade

Jarrod Kimber joins me this week on the podcast as we discuss the conundrum of cricket commentary on Tv. The fan conversation has only gotten louder on the style of the commentary with notable names across the world struggling to add value to the hardcoure viewer. Kimber helps unpack this through layers of what the production houses can or cannot do improve this product. We use examples of Gavaskar, McEnroe and Shaq across from various sports to discuss this point at length. What type of commentary is needed to please all fan bases.  The other focal point of this chat was to view the fast bowing culture build by Virat Kohli's captainship. Can this be measured at all? Is Kohli the modern day Imran khan? Kimber is very articulate in how we can separate the narratives from the reality which is usually full of cricket reasons. The episode concludes with the topic of batting struggles of this generation in test matches. Why only a few batters average above 40 now? Is it the pitches or the reasons lie elsewhere.
