Ponting All Set to React This Time
![]() |
Ricky Ponting is really sick of hearing the questions on his performance in India. He has been quizzed by the media over his potential in facing the balls on Indian grounds. His otherwise unblemished Test record is shadowed with unimpressive performance on India fields. His attempts to bring out scores never found good results on India soil. In the past few years Ponting was seen to be more aggressive of grounds with a few couple of massive tons taking his overall runs to new heights. He even garnered a space in Aussies cricket same to Steve Waugh, Allen Border and Mark Taylor. With a series of mind blowing performance in past two-three years, he has gained an authority over Aussies batting side.
This time Ricky Ponting found time to explain the media the reason that he found was behind poor performance. Ricky Ponting says that he never had trust on himself. He was able to take his technique to confidence. Ponting feels that the dismissal in the first Indian Test would have been the cause of the problem. The effort to play different at every delivery is the result of that fear. But they made things more complicated. Things used to end up at stumping or caught at bat-pad sweeping.
Ricky Ponting says that he is this time in India after a thorough home work. He has learned the lessons care fully and have reached a conclusion that even if you get out; you should stick on the style of batting. This may bring runs, he believes. Ricky Ponting added that he never found Harbhajan Singh as a big threat.
Ricky Ponting stressed on the statistics to show that his performance in Sri Lank, which is the most difficult place to face spin bowling is excellent. This proves that he could face spin bowling without any difficulty. Ricky Ponting expressed confidence in his team. He said they are well equipped and has enough ammunition against the hosts.
