I'm 100% in the agreeance on the whole "calling from the studio" nonsense and the madcap antics it brings. I seem to recall during the Australia-Sri Lanka series the commentators weren't even trying to hide the fact they weren't over there:)
It's hard to maintain the illusion of being at the ground when you're commentating off the television feed. Much better to just own up to it and start shouting at the camera operators and scoreboard updaters for not giving you enough information in a timely fashion, I reckon.
