  1. I prefer the women’s cricket to the mane but the big put off is the men commentators verbal non stop diarrhoea. Andy Marr seams to just like hearing his voice.& most of what he says is just rubbish. A real put off. As Richie Benaud would say somethings are best commentated on with silence.

  2. That’s actually wrong! I started watching the wbbl on fox cricket and it’s the same coverage as what’s on channel 7. It’s the same commentary team and the same broadcast but without ads. I thought fox said they are going to have a different commentary team

      1. Nah! It’s like the women’s T20 against New Zealand, Fox was using the channel 7 coverage. Compare the score board, it was different to the normal Fox cricket.

  3. It’s good that there are matches on the main channel and not just the secondary channel for that’s good. Is Fox Cricket going to have its own commentary or are they going to simulcast channel 7 broadcast like they did with the Women’s T20s?
