Still The Twelfth Man

Still the 12th Man is Billy Birmingham's third comedy album, released in 1992, continuing his hugely popular send-up of Australian cricket broadcasting. Once again using his uncanny impressions of Richie Benaud, Bill Lawry, Tony Greig, Ian Chappell and the Channel Nine commentary team, Birmingham blends cricket commentary with absurd situations, backstage banter and relentless wordplay. Expanding beyond the cricket field, the album pokes fun at sports media, celebrity culture and Australian humour, cementing the series as one of the country's most successful comedy franchises.

As a product of its era, the recording also contains language and cultural stereotypes that reflect the attitudes of the time and may be considered offensive or insensitive by today's standards.
