Australian cricket captain from 50 years ago, turned into GOAT cricket commentator.

Think Craig Sagar popularity on a play by play guy, if he also captained the national team in his younger days and his suits were only white, off white, cream, ivory, bone or beige in colour.

Had a unique accent, especially how he said 2.

There’s entire bays that turn up to the cricket dressed as Richie each summer: over 100 men with handheld mic, white jacket, white wig in 40 degree heat for 8 hours a day for a 5 day match.

Marvellous.


I heard this dude's voice before. Truly a voice made for radio and television. His name sadly has slipped my mind. What's his name?

Desmond Bane's obsession with the number 2 is so insane he's adamant about trying to become a 2a/2b option in the pecking order. Bloody unbelievable.


Richie Benaud.

2 for 22 is a common saying when doing a Richie Benaud impersonation
