Riki Ponting is one of the finest captain of one day Cricket. He got the nice farewell from Ausis Selection team by making him as their captain in his final match. The last match victory against India is the perfect farewell for him. All the best Mr. Ponting. We miss your classic one day batting. I can’t forget your 140 (n/o) in the 2003 world cup final. Soooooper..
Aussies showed the way out for Pointing.Will BCCI and Selectors can dare to show the way out for Sachin ? India need to look for new and younger team leaving out seniors like Sehwag and Sachin.

Because OZ is OZ and not India.. do you have anyone in India who can be as good as watson to replace Sachin.. Pointing failed after having a very good team.. and no record to worry for... but Sachin in a team where if he does not score than no one does.. First Let India learn to play with Sachin... than may be we can think of playing without him.......

Once upon a time, hitting "you know who" on the helmet was a very very rare sight.
Now, even Ben Hilfenhaus can give a clonk to the man. Sign of things that have come to pass.
lion of cricket world.accepted media he is not in form but what is wrong with sachin tingu who cannot faced media since england tour 2011 to till date.
ricky ponting for taking retirement from odi.He continue in test and first class cricket.THis is insult of ricky ponting.Now clarke become captain in next match against sri lanka.Ricky ponting captaincy in yesterday match win australia by 110.Cricket australia ignored all these things.You are not shameless like sachin tingu,sehwag who did not perform well in overseas after world cup 2011 and shamefully played from team india.By theri load rahane and tiwari did not played single odi.So give chance to watson,khwaja for improve their carrier.
give such type of indication in last media brief when he disappointed his performance against sri lanka and in his captaincy sri lanka win and insult his captaincy.Again yesterday match he again failed.This is crucial series.Cricket australia must win this series that is why they take crucial steps.

catch off 2nd ball was dropped by seniors. let arm spin of doherty gave 29 in 10, RJ didn't get a ball. Raina bowled 10, reason was off spinner was needed. but specialist offie was in pavillion. bowlers were getting cramps, so bowled out zaheer first up in 'long spells'. you know middle order is thin, but still in form captain didn't go early where as in t20, he went early to avoid collapse when gauti was playing well.

How many times have you seen Dhoni coming down to bowler and suggesting him when a bowler gets hit for 4 or 6 Dhoni looks for personal records. How many times does he come up the order in ODI's and Tests whenever india is in trouble..pls do not talk about worldcup final as it was Gary's Decission to send him up Sick Captain threw away captaincy after two white washes.... Better Dhoni, Wash ur but cheeks with the test gear what u have got...cuz you are not even a worth of our greats Sachin,Dravid, Laxman, Ganguly and Kumble who rule indian ckt for 2 decades And remember you were one of the stems when they were trees and you have learned playing cricket from them but you still the silly F stem

if scoring 20/30 is what needed to be replaced, any new player can also make them. A certain sachin is not needed to be maintained in the team.
