Yes, Ricky Ponting was a True Champion in his own right. He was a Brilliant Captain who smashed the 2003 Indian Bowling attack to all parts of the Stadium in Johannesburg alongwith Adam Gilchrist and Damien Martyn & ensured India had no chance of chasing such a vast score of 359.
Ponting & Aussie team also Won the 2007 World cup in The West Indies quite easily.
Ricky Ponting's Team also beat India in the 2004 Border Gavaskar Trophy much to my disappointment as well.
Plus a 5-0 Ashes Win over England in Australia in 2006-2007 series.
Plus he also has 13,378 Test Runs & 13,704 ODI Runs - Can our Dhobi equal this record as well ?????
Is a Joke. Ponting won test matches all over the world. He was an amazing player in all format of the game. Plus he has done this less number of matches. Dhoni just rode on hard work of Dada as captain
