Ricky Ponting’s Next Great Challenge

2 Comments 30 March 2011

Matt Wood of Balanced Sports analyses the resignation of Ricky Ponting and states a case as to what Punter should do next in Australian cricket.

Ricky Ponting has resigned as Australian captain. And it could be the best decision he’s ever made.

Though his abilities with the wand are waning, Ponting still remains Australia’s best batsman against the spinning ball and could provide a useful resource for his probable successor Michael Clarke. The decision to resign but not retire ranks with his most mature choices as a leader and is also in keeping with his “lead by example” philosophy.
