Tubbs looks like a man in heaven, just totally enjoying watching cricket. He's fully engaged in the game, living it, breathing it, out there in the field, but also fully engaged with Mark Howard's questions about his time as Australian men's cricket captain. I reckon Tubbs would watch cricket every day of the year. I'd happily sit next to him at a game, talking about the game, sinking some pints.

Merv is captivated with this story, hanging on tubby's every word

Seriously one off our best captains ever, great cricketing brain, great leader off men, very solid opening bat and one off the safest set off hands I’ve ever seen in cricket..solid 8/9 out off ten as a captain

The best captain I have seen. Great cricketing brain, very good decision making when it came to strategy and tactics. Great tactician. Good opening batsman who opened in an era where the bowlers was much more strong collectively in terms of depth. Its a weaker era now.

100% right. Made a lot great intuitive decisions; read the game brilliantly. Also diplomatic & friendly to opposition.

Tubby’s the best part of Triple M’s cricket coverage. Just brilliant.

love these video snippets of the stories during the broadcasts!

Mark Taylor was going through a horrible run of form in 1996/97. It wasn’t until he made a great century in the 2nd innings of the first test of the 1997 Ashes series in England. It was said that he would have been dropped, but for the great form of the team and his captaincy.

Merv, “…not this story again.” :)

I think Australia played the most attractive and aggressive brand of cricket under him. A great captain for sure.

Triple M production team... How do we keep Merv settled? Where's the food? 😂😂😂😂😂😂

Mark Taylor's mannerisms in the 1st minute reminded me of Jay Leno minus the accentuated chin and denim

Merv at the back 1:35, wondering if he is going to have the beef or chicken tonight for dinner...

Which dinner specifically? 1st, 2nd or 3rd?

What a pair in that box! Ledges.

Great segment heading down memory lane by Mr Fujitsu!

As bogan and biased as triple M can be, these interview segments they do and their chatting is really great.

Does Michael Clarke still do any commentary for any of the radio stations, TV channels? Always thought he was a good commentator on channel 9.

Good Lord !

Merv disappeared!

It's ok. He's back.

Has Virat Kohli already heard this before quitting his test captaincy yesterday ? I think he had 😅

Compared to Taylor and Chappell, I find the current crop of commentators on channel 7 to be terrible. Brayshaw, Langer, Hayden, Finch, Copeland and Mel McLaughlin are 3rd rate, IMO.
