I'm surprised the World XI team that played Australia in the series just gone didn't try and squeeze him into their side on the basis he is eligible because of his christian name.

Could happily listen to Aggers all day...especially like his occasional banter with Ian Chappell.

Agnew was commentating with Brian Johnston for an England v West Indies Test Match in August 1991 when they produced a piece of commentary which has been voted by listeners to BBC Radio 5 Live as the "greatest piece of sporting commentary ever".[6]
In a review of the day, Johnston was describing how Ian Botham, while batting, had overbalanced and tried, but failed, to step over his stumps. Botham was consequently given out hit wicket. Agnew's comment on this action was: "He just couldn't quite get his leg over." The innuendo provoked a lengthy period of laughter and giggling, most notably by Johnston, who tried to continue commentating through his giggles and included the line "Aggers, for goodness' sake, do stop it" between convulsions of mirth.[7] In England, "getting one's leg over" is a euphemism for having sexual intercourse, something for which Botham had quite a reputation.[8]
Another on-air giggling fit by Agnew was provoked by Eleanor Oldroyd's comment: "One good bit of news for England is that Ian Botham's groin is back to full strength."
