A friend and I were discussing how interesting it would be if certain commentators switched sports to ply their wares, and how it would change the viewers image of the game.

We came up with a few that would well and truly change the scene.

John Arlott introduces the 'Rumble in the Jungle'
Murray Walker at the final of the World Snooker Championship.
John Motson describes the World Bowls Championship.

Can anyone come up with a few others ?
