The Network Nine cricket commentary team, featuring the captain Richie Benaud, Bill Lawry, Tony Greig, Ian Chappell, Rod Marsh and Max Walker are at the MCG commentating the one-day match between Australia and Sri Lanka as part of the Benson & Hedges World Series Cup. The Sri Lankans are getting smashed in the match, Bill Lawry, an avid Victorian, loses his marbles when Merv Hughes, a fellow Victorian, claims a hat-trick and has to leave the commentary box. Merv Hughes also sticks his tongue down Allan Border's throat when the ball gets lodged in there.
