The third boundary was humiliating to the bowler. For a good four to five years Ricky ponting lived rent free in every bowler's head. He was in such a phenomenal form.
Exactly 22 years ago ponting first as captain named win the series 6 1 ponting captaincy Australia played 14 odi tournament finals from 2002 to 2009 he lost two one tied no captain achieved this feat
I have never seen any batsman playing the pull and hook shot such brilliantly like RICKY PONTING. The other great batsman of his generation like LARA, INZAMAM, ARAVINDA DE SILVA were also outstanding stroke makers but except SACHIN TENDULKAR no other batsman was ahead of PONTING as a complete batsman. Although PONTING has few weakness against inswing deliveries and spin bowking like ISHANT SHARMA, HARBHAJAN SINGH and he was dismissed by them several times, sill he scored lot of runs against them. All my best wishes for him and his family.
I still can't believe how did Pakistan managed to Beat this Ruthless and Invincible Australian side by 2-1 in the summer of 2002 that too in Australia. Which includes Shane Warne as well. That same Australian team then went unbeaten and Won the World Cup in 2003 in the absence of Shane Warne
Ricky Ponting is a pure class and timing king. Ricky Ponting had heavenly blocking and graceful godly defence for best and gorgeous 4 runs.

People who lived that era would completely agree.
