Even if one chooses to discount his fielding skills, captaincy skills and the fact that he has won two world cups for his country, Ponting would be in the playing 11 of any team in the world for his batting skills alone.
He is a match-saver, a match-winner, he HIMSELF has rarely been involved with spats and dirty sledging (a little heat is always welcome).
Just cuz the Australians are generally regarded as dirty players, sledgers and whatnot, people are accusing Ponting of things he doesn't deserve.
A little respect, folks. Ponting is an asset to Australia. So much so, the moment India gets Ponting, aussies are on the backfoot instantaneously.
He is their dravid, mr. consistent, their sachin, the record breaker, their ganguly, captain material, their laxman, the stylist.
All of us know, that Aussies sense the absence of bhajj and sreesanth, because these two wud hav given it back double to the aussies. The crybaby aussies wouldnt dare to sledge sreesanth/bhajji...so they targetted gambhir. Harbhajan and Sreesanth are the faces of NEW AGGRESIVE india, hence we miss them and the response they mite have given to watson
Bhaiya Dravidji Aapko hum bahut gambhir paristhiti mein India ka haar bachane ke liye akele sangharsh karte huye dekha hoon, aur humra maanna hai ki aap jaisa batsman India mein paida nahin hua. Par bhaiya, aajkal aap jo khel dikha rehe ho, usse aapke saare kiye par paani phir jaane ka khatra hai. Koi ummeed bhi nahin dikhta ki aap phir se pahile jaisa kheloge. Is liye hum aap se haath jodkar vinty karta hoon. Sachinwa ka munh mat dekho. Turant retirement ka announce kar do. Aap ka ek tho fan.
KUDO'S TO INDIANS. THE AUSTRALIANS ARE FEELING JITTERY FOR GETTING THEIR OWN MEDICINE TO THEM...THEY FEEL THAT SLEDGING IS THEIR BIRTH RIGHT. GOOD INDIANS ARE MATCHING THEM NOT ONLY IN CRICKET BUT ALSO IN SLEDGING...COMMON INDIA DONT LEAVE THEM SMASH THEM OUT OF GROUND. THIS IS THE BEST OPPORTUNITY TO GO 2 UP. I WHOLE HEARTEDLY WISH YOU GUYS THE VERY BEST
I am in dilemma...I am die hard fan of Sachin Tendulkar and I am a northie.....Shall I take permission from honourable Raj Thankre before admiring my favourite cricket player? I also wonder if Cricket fan from Maharshtra will stop appreciating Dhoni (for whatever limited success he has so far. I am also a huge fan of Lata mangeshkar...and list goes on....can anyone enlighten me?

RAJ has a gag order on him....i allow u all u want to do....poor raj will have to keep his dirty mouth shut
Consider this: ZAheer says a few harmless words and referee fines him 80%. So, here we have Shane watson, and Katich abusing gambhir, and Clarke supporting them. Also, he stood in the way of a gambhir single. WHat if he had been runout?? It was refreshing to see NDTV(hindi) trashing the Aussies. These guys have slightest sportsman spirit...unlike Indians who always play in right spirit(incl bhajji,uthappa,sreesanth etc). Their aggresiion is only due to passion. While aussies intention is to harm. Life ban for Katich,watson etc are perfect

Sachin and Lata are diamonds! Their shine will not reduce even if you don't admire them. If you have so much trouble admiring them, better don't!
