A team of test legends will be behind the microphones when the Hong Kong Cricket Sixes is staged next month.
Lining up in the commentary box at the Kowloon Cricket Club on 8-9 November will be “all-star” quintet Waqar Younis, Sanjay Manjrekar, Ian Bishop, Danny Morrison and Kumar Sangakkara.......
......The Sixes will mark Sangakkara’s debut behind the microphone and Ten Sports chiefs are expecting him to be a huge hit with viewers.
The charismatic Sri Lankan star, 30, is taking time out from playing to be part of the commentary team.
Sangakkara is regarded as one of the finest wicketkeeper-batsmen of all time, having plundered 17 centuries in his 76 test appearances at an average of 54.79.He has also played 230 ODIs.
He is currently second in the International Cricket Council (ICC) world batting rankings behind West Indian Shivnarine Chanderpaul, who will be taking part in the Sixes as a member of the All-Stars team.

BTW, does anybody know whether the HK Sixes will be telecast in Sri Lanka? I am looking forward to see Jayasuriya bat.
