R.I.P. Richie Benaud

Very sad news that Australian legend Richie Benaud has passed away at the age of 84.

Along with Brian Moore, the voice I will always associate with my childhood.

Will miss his voice when it comes to cricket R.I.P Richie Benaud.

Sad news, along with Brian Johnston he was the expert voice of cricket

a cricket god and legend gone rip

Oh no .
This is desperately sad news .
One of the most insightful, thought provoking and legendary commentators of any era imo.
An outstanding cricketer in his day too.
I so enjoyed his commentaries.
A very sad loss indeed.

R.I.P .

A true legend of media and Cricket, a commentator icon
He made the 1981 Ashes alive with his commentary and made summer days seem blissful and like Name Change has already said, we have lost a part of our childhood with Richie's passing One of the Aussie's best cricket captains and of the first to make 2000 runs and 200 Test wickets All thoughts to friends family and colleagues at this very sad time
Thank you Richie for making my childhood love of cricket a happy one. RIP

A brilliant cricketer who became a legend as a cricket commentator

Always enjoyed his commentries and insight into the game. He was truely the voice of cricket as was seen by the output of emotions when he retired recently. He will be missed by countless cricket fans.
