batsmen among Aussies wiil get into smashing form against Indian bowling. This happened so often in the past.By the end of this series Ponting and the like would be smiling again.
so selectors should have plan to have most of the team with 100% fitness. even yadav went away once due to injury.
rehabilitation(massage, mild therapy water rehab, etc) is possible for bowlers coming out of injury. It can be rotation of 2-3 over between three bowlers. For example, here is rotation plan for bowler x, y and z for 3 over spells. 3(x), 3(y), 3(z) the bowler coming out of injury is x can do 3 over spell before going for rehab while the next "two bowlers" y and z complete 3 overs between them. x comes of rehab and does 3 over spell with only y or x from opposite end or "both y and z" rotating on opposite end. Many combinations are possible such that x can have rehab after 2 or 3 or 4 or 5 over spell depending on his ease and recovery level. we can also send y and z for rehabilitation during the bowling rotation.
who did not make runs Grheme smith of south africa Andrew strauss of england Virender sehwag and gautam gambhir. rider of new zealand. Why did not media targetted these batsman. Why only ricky thomas ponting.He is good player give contribution in every match.
Ponting, Sachin are different class player, People are always expecting more from them, But when they play average game,Everybady make comment upon them,unnecesary raise pressure upon them. Allow them to play their natural game then only they can give good result, This is also a main cause about Sachin and he unable to make hin 100th century because of more expectation from us. Shrivastav
Wonder what some characters here who are pro ponting talk if Sachin had a similar lean patch. But of course Sachin never had such a horrible patch. I guess ponting is a human being too.
Its a smart decision by the Aussie to retain/prefer experience. Ponting is just one big knock away to get back to top form.. and probably, Indian bowlers would offer him this opportunity on a platter!!

This one big knock is a joke!! Sehwag hit a double century against WI after a lean patch of more than two years and now he will not play good for next two years. Still selectors have to keep him in the team saying he is just one big know away !!

Guys : There’s a difference between Sehwag’s style of play with Ponting’s. Sehwag is a maverick, he’s fully capable of scoring a triple hundred in one game and getting a perfect zero in the next. Ponting is a different level with the likes of Lara & Tendulkar. When greats like Lara & Tendulkar go thru a lean phase all then need is that one big knock to regain form.. Ponting case is very much similar. So It would be unfair to compare him with Sehwag.
