  • My journey through the #T20WorldCup2024 continues with a trip to New York where I got to see the US start taking to cricket, and bridging that gap between America's love for baseball and the beautiful sport of cricket is Jimmy O'Brien - a.k.a. Jomboy - who I caught up with in this episode. We discuss his recent cricket commentary stint and the increasingly popular ‪@WarehouseGames‬ (do check it out!).

    Mel nailed it when she said that Jomboy is the perfect person for translating the game to Americans. Good convo.

    Jimmy did a great job. I must say Dale Steyn seemed to really be in sync with him in the booth. Dale seems like a nice guy.

    after listening to this podcast, i have new appreciation for washing machine. Regarding USA vs SA, i expected usa to score less than `140 but they did scored well(`176/6) against SA

      man I think one bad over by one of the American bowlers really cost the usa, I think he went for over 30+ runs over 2 overs. It was brutal to watch.

    Hi Jomboy, looking forward to more cricket videos, especially around your experiences there watching live matches, the atmosphere, great performances, tense moments and also very importantly what you learnt about cricket technically, strategy wise while interacting with the great former players who were on commentary team with you Cheers

    Some matches on the streaming sites won't have ads between overs and wickets! However big teams will always have ads even for streaming!
    And Jimmy you did a good job during the commentary sessions you were involved in.

    Ey up Mel, another subscriber here. Loved your ramblings about going to a coffin manufacturer in Brum a while back. If you fancy meeting up for a wild afternoon at Keswick's Pencil Museum give me a shout. Good luck with the podcast, Lincoln
