    Music at cricket.

    A total abomination at this test match in South Africa.

    Christ knows who told this collection of fools that they can actually play.........fancy having to put up with that din all day whilst trying to watch the game.

    I’m amazed they’re allowed continue during play.

    I must admit the pounding music at ours and other grounds does my head in as well along with the shouting announcer.

    These days everything seems to be about the noise........TV and radio is just people shouting and screaming and loud music interjections 24/7.

    If something is worth saying it doesn’t need to be shouted.

    The cricket has been ruined for me by this appalling “band”.

    I think they are trying to stop people falling asleep watching this tedious sport. I must say though i took an interest in the test before the last when that large bird had a stroll around the pitch looking for food. Was it an Ibis?

    I'm in the departure lounge at Port Elizabeth airport and have been at both the test at Cape Town and Port Elizabeth. Yes, the band does get on your nerves with their constant noise. It's OK in short bursts but not continuously. Anyway, despite this and the weather we should win this test.

    I detest the playing of music which drowns out the natural jubilation of a wicket. Nothing better than the roar of a crowd when a wicket taken or a goal scored. Anyway it appears England have redeemed themselves of sorts by hopefully winning the 3rd test against Seth Africa
