The Art of Cricket Commentary
Jonathan Agnew and Eddie Bevan on what makes a successful commentator.
ÃÛÑ¿´«Ã½ cricket correspondent Jonathan Agnew explains what ingredients go into making a successful commentator. We discover how listeners in Australia kept up with the Ashes back in 1934 and no matter how prepared you are in radio, things can still go wrong. We speak to ÃÛÑ¿´«Ã½ Radio Wales cricket commentator Eddie Bevan who was hit by a ball coming through the commentary box not once, not twice, but three times in his career.
