Mentioned by Clint in the Tony Greig thread, but deserves him own, IMO.

Really sad news that he has passed on today.

RIP. Out for a classy 67.

RIP CMJ

I do like the snippet of commentary that the BBC have used to go along with the news of his death.

sad news. CMJ is a legend. TMS just won't be the same.
R.I.P. Major.

Yup, seems cricket commentators have that certain kind of personality. I love the story about his legendary time-keeping, and anyway he turned up to commentate at a test match, late as usual - except he'd compounded the error by turning up at the wrong ground.

Didn't know he was ill. RIP - he will be missed.
