Ricky Ponting has the most number of runs by an Australian in Test cricket, 2nd overall, behind Sachin Tendulkar. Most Centuries by an Australian (41) in Tests, 3rd overall, behind Tendulkar and Jacques Kallis. Most catches (196) by an Australian in Test cricket, 5th overall, behind Rahul Dravid, Joe Root, Mahela Jatawardene and Jacques Kallis. He also has the most runs by an Australian in ODI matches, 4th overall, behind Tendulkar, Kumar Sangakkara of Sri Lanka, and Virat Kohli. Most centuries (30) by an Australian in ODIs, 4th overall, bheind Kohli, Tendulkar and Rohit Sharma. Most catches (160) by an Australian in ODIs, and second overall, behind Mahela Jayawardene of Sri Lanka. He didn't play many T20 Internationals, but nearly scored the first T20I century in the first ever T20I - 98 not out, his highest score in the format. He is credited with 80 run outs in international cricket, most of which were direct hits. There are some compilations of his run outs, some claim to have all of them. He was captaon of the Australia test team from 2004 to 2011, and of the ODI team from 2002 to 2011. I guess he could play a bit!
I was here to say he was so accurate throwing at the stumps. One of the best I’ve seen. Ad to say at around 4:38 oh ah, Glen McGarth….. and it was good to see some 5:08 Brett Lee too.
@ 🤣😂 poor Hadley gets roasted in that so I’m not sure it’s YT friendly, but this video is about Glen. He was seriously good, in an era with Warnie and Glenn. What a line up.
One of the best batsmen's of all time his catching can only be bettered by his run outs from direct hits . His reflexes are phenomenal , just so quick to hand and throw instantly and still hit the stumps.
Hard to believe as it is, he was perhaps even better at ground fielding and throwing down the stumps for run outs. Incredible fielder. I think he's possibly the best all-round fielder ever. He would certainly be right up near the top. And yes, they ARE "Cricketers".
I wish I better understood what you said.. I liked watching cricket when I was a kid and it was on once a week on PBS, but I've never understood it. But, I can appreciate a sick athlete when I see one, yeah?🤙
Pointing was not only brilliant Captain for Australia but a great batsman and fielder, from catching to hitting the stumps, he could do it all. One of the best ever cricketers in the world and Captained Australia’s best ever team.
For his entire career, Ponting was considered one of, if not THE best and most dangerous fielder in the world. On top of being one of the best Batsman.
At his height, he was the best batsman in the world. When he got in the zone, it was a thing of Beauty if you are a cricket lover. Not so much if he played against you. Which he did. Hated him, but respected and appreciated his clinalness. That’s what set him apart, he was exceptionally meticulous in everything he did. He was fire I’m South African, but I tip my hat to Greatness when I see it.
Always love your reactions guys! You've got great insight and interpretations of sports you aren't that familiar with, really makes for interesting viewing. And like everyone else is saying, you should totally watch a Ponting run outs / direct hits video (There's one on a channel called SSA Cricket uploaded 4 years ago, easy to find. 19 minutes of bliss). Miss watching him play tbh.
Punter had fingers made out of super glue. Always in the discussion of not just Australia but the world when it comes to the greatest. In Cricket the Captains have a bigger impact than most other sports, essentially on field coaches. Plenty of tactic changes on the fly. Punter was an incredible captain during a real competitive era of Cricket.
Ponting is 1 of the all-time greats, he could score runs and his fielding was top notch, think he was up the top of most catches, but my brain might be imagining that lol, he was good at runouts too
Ponting was the master fielder. No one as good in the field. And he could bat. They had no choice but to make him captain and he turned out to be a genius strategist.
Ponting was my favourite batsman to watch for many years when I was in high school. Him and Gilchrist… and Hayden.. and Mark Waugh.. yeah we had a stacked team back then 😂
He was not just best fielder but he was one of the best batsman in the world, Best captain in the world till date he was a myth, he was a nightmare for every Indian cricket fan in 2003 world Cup final, people have superstition about him that there was a spring in his bat.
A great catch, brilliant fielder, as good as Viv Richards, Jonty Rhodes and Herschell Gibbs at running batsmen out , a master batsman, most successful captain when Australia was breaking records for consecutive wins in both Test Matches and One Day Internationals and also a handy spin bowler at lower levels of cricket. Ricky burst onto the cricketing scene as a 14 yo batsman making centuries in A Grade cricket against the best men available for local cricket......and was groomed for stardom once Cricket Australia knew of the wonderkid. Was probably an excellant junior AFL footballer as well. lol
One of the best fielders of all time. One if the best batters of all time. Captain with one of the best winning percentage, filled with a team of killers. This was peak Australian cricket
And actually now thinking about it his commentary since he retired is some of the most insightful and he often predicts exactly what is about to happen
You commented on the unique accent of one of the commentators; he is English, more specifically from Yorkshire up in the north of England. A very easy accent to pick once you tune in to it.
Ponting started playing first class cricket, State comp - Sheffield Shield, at 17. He was selected to play for Australia at 21. I was not impressed thinking he was being given an easy ride as a favourite of Rod Marsh. He proved me utterly wrong as he is something of a savant, having dropped out of school after completing only the 10th grade. He was pure poetry in everything he did on the cricket field and a real gentleman. He captained Australia during one of its most dominant eras. To hear him speak in commentry is to hear everyone else just go silent. He just knows the game like he played it - peerless.
Ricky ponting is the greatest captain of all time winning 2 ODI world cups and 2 champions Trophy as captain and beating each and every team at their own den in tests.. He is the second highest run getter in international cricket and third highest century scorer in the world
Great Catcher. Great Highlights Simply the best direct hitter of the stumps for a run out there has ever been however. Even better than this compilation
I was at the last game. I honestly forgot about that catch, because the whole game was sooo memorable. But that just came back to me. So unreal to witness it in person 😊 Also you need to watch Ricky Ponting fielding highlights, and even batting highlights. His fielding was next level, his aiming was unmatched. He was one of the greatest batters in the world!
Ricky was the man broke my heart many times against south Africa. true legend of the game. you guys should check out Jonty Rhodes he was a different kind of talent but also had awesome catches
ponting was 3 times straight odi world cup winning australian team captain, they won 3 consecutive odi world cup without any loss , australians were undefetable at that time
Ponting was captain in 2003 and 2007, but Steve Waugh was in 1999. The Australians lost a couple of games in their group stage (to New Zealand and Pakistan) of 1999, and tied with South Africa in teh semi-final. After that, they did not lose a match in World Cup tournaments until 2011.
Cricketer is absolutely the correct term for a cricket player. Ponting is a living legend, amazing hand eye coordination which made him lethal in the field with very quick pickups, direct strike runouts, as you've seen catches and it made him a legend with the bat too, scoring over 13000 runs with an average of 52 runs per innings in test matches and 13000 runs scoring an average of 42 runs per innings. He played for Australia for over 17 years and led from the front for 9 of them. There's a 32 minute+ compilation of Ricky Ponting direct hits: ua-cam.com/video/wy5HAJlAxQU/v-deo.htmlsi=C0-cq9LY2XprApQd . There's quite a few compilation videos of his fielding magic out there.
He was an amazing fielder in general. You should check out this compilation of his run outs. ua-cam.com/video/C6JZuJEqoww/v-deo.htmlsi=ewPxo6AREdKCXbtC Also he was arguably Australia’s best Captain,and if not he was definitely Australia’s most successful Captain. Also the best pull shot batsman of all time.
Not on only was Ricky Ponting a great fielder the was equally impressive with the bat. Definitely one of our best cricketers. I'm sure has the highest career runs in a test match & only 2nd to Tendulkar.
I played cricket in Australia as a kid and almost everytime I tried to catch a had ball it hit me either on the heel of the hand or on the tip of mu finger and would ache for a week. So I took up track and field.
Ponting most certainly IS the man! Legends don't come much bigger than him. Won 3 consecutive World cups, captaining the latter 2. 2nd Highest win% of any captain in the history of the game - only his predecessor had a higher win rate. Numerous records to his name - it just goes on.
"Cricketer" is fine. Ricky "Punter" Ponting was a mainstay of the Aussie team for many years and was one of the best fielders ever. He's now a TV commentator. IMO, for close-in catches, there was none better. Trent Boult on the boundary; Ponting in close; and for catches between the two, Jonty Rhodes. They would be my top catching trio. That last catch... as they say in Aussie, that's going straight to the pool room.
Merry Christmas 🎄 Ricky is one of the best!!!! But I’m biased being an Aussie… check out Jonty Rhodes and MS Dhoni There’s heaps more but yeah Enjoy 🤙🇦🇺
One of our best captians also top scoring batter as well many 💯 some doubles high up on batting order as well Spent most of his time in slip area for fielding for this reason Most slip fielder are the best batters as they can read the ball off the pitch and react in advance depending edge where it hits the bat Also due to being batters their reflexes are highly tuned to react quickly It's why bowler's tend to field in deep as fast running from bowling and strong arms to throw the ball from distance hard and fast Also bowler's are tall over 6ft so better chance of catching ball on bounder But like you see Ponting is a smaller player and why he's more agile low or leap But alway exceptions to the rules Mid fielders tend to be mid order batters That's why most fielders are specilized in those areas and generally safe but can field anywhere This is what makes a good captain knowing which player to put where and when They work with bowler's to How they won't the ball bowl or how bowler decides he going to bowl Then captain will place the best player suitable for that spot It might take several overs just bowling to restrict batters and frustration builds then they'll adjust fielders The bowler's will bowl to the batters strenght and hopefully get them caught as they'll go for what seem a loose bowl But was planned by captain and bowler's Cheers guys 🦘🇦🇺👍
IMHO, these types of catches, close to the batsmen, are the best - far superior to 'outfield' catches. The ball is often travelling like a tracer bullet, and the lightning reactions and sheer athleticism required to take the catches is immense.
Cracking catch, cracking shot, ball etc isn't old lingo fellas... its still used today. Im biased being an Aussie... but Punter (Ponting) was a gun player.. all round!!
Ricky Ponting was Australian captain. Renowned for his Fielding and batting skills. Here’s a bunch of his best run outs. ua-cam.com/video/C6JZuJEqoww/v-deo.htmlsi=CrR6FZXT36DZuaUv
Ahoy mates, another excellent reaction there. I konw you have done Shane Warne's best 10 bowls which is not enough I think, try 'Shane Warne's best 50 wicket's on home soil', to get more of an all round showing of his astounding talent, RIP, three cheers to you oo thanks
ua-cam.com/video/C6JZuJEqoww/v-deo.htmlsi= this is his runouts Ricky is a freak to be honest but a lot of hard work goes into being that good at batting and fielding and off scratch at golf as well
Ricky "Punter" Ponting is the BEST fielder ever. Nobody is even close. He could also use the bat - check his batting record on CRICINFO. And his CAPTAINCY RECORD. Also, check out Ponting's RUN OUTS... Punter is now coaching in the IPL. No surprise. M 🦘🏏😎
These are pontings catches. Watch him field and throw at the stumps. His accuracy was next level 😀😀😀
Yes he was one of the best cover fielders, taking a quick single to Ponting was risky
A run out compilation video of Ponting and Jonty would be amazing. Thanks for the video.

Jonty Rhodes , is the only other that came close to Ponting in the field .
@@adamparker9765 I think Ponting, Rhodes and Mark Waugh would possibly be the top 3.
Ricky Ponton wasn't the Australian captain for no reason. Absolute legend and he was a ruthless captain.
Ricky is arguably the greatest Australian captain ever and a masterclass of a player
Yeah, his catches, this guy is a MASTER batsman, you must react to his batting.
Not just a great fielder but one of the best batsmen ever. He is Tasmanian too, which tops off his greatness.
Pointing was not only brilliant Captain for Australia but a great batsman and fielder, from catching to hitting the stumps, he could do it all. One of the best ever cricketers in the world and Captained Australia’s best ever team.

"Ricky Ponting Run Out Compilation - some of the best run outs of all time" - is the follow up to this video you need
He was the best batter I've seen, at times he just never looked like getting out
Ricky now a commentator for Aussie cricket, still coaches (overseas)I believe.
Best cricket mind , great predictions.
He coached the Washington freedom this year to a very dominant championship win.
His compliation of direct hits is worth watching
His catches might be good, but his run outs were even better, an Aussie legend
yep he was that good.... best captain we ever had too!

The thing with Ponting is he had the exact same level of talent when he was 14.
Ponting was my favourite batsman to watch for many years when I was in high school. Him and Gilchrist… and Hayden.. and Mark Waugh.. yeah we had a stacked team back then 😂
Ricky Ponting, Andy symonds, johnty Rhodes some amazing fielders

Time when fielders were also appreciated by the bowlers❤😢

react to glenn philips catches

Merry Christmas 🎄
Ricky is one of the best!!!! But I’m biased being an Aussie… check out Jonty Rhodes and MS Dhoni
There’s heaps more but yeah
Enjoy 🤙🇦🇺
Not just his catching abilities guys. Check out Pointing's direct hit run outs too.
And yet. He's was 4th inline behing Mark Waugh, Andrew Symonds and Bobby Simpson👍
One of our best captians also top scoring batter as well many 💯 some doubles high up on batting order as well
Spent most of his time in slip area for fielding for this reason
Most slip fielder are the best batters as they can read the ball off the pitch and react in advance depending edge where it hits the bat
Also due to being batters their reflexes are highly tuned to react quickly
It's why bowler's tend to field in deep as fast running from bowling and strong arms to throw the ball from distance hard and fast
Also bowler's are tall over 6ft so better chance of catching ball on bounder
But like you see Ponting is a smaller player and why he's more agile low or leap
But alway exceptions to the rules
Mid fielders tend to be mid order batters
That's why most fielders are specilized in those areas and generally safe but can field anywhere
This is what makes a good captain knowing which player to put where and when
They work with bowler's to How they won't the ball bowl or how bowler decides he going to bowl
Then captain will place the best player suitable for that spot
It might take several overs just bowling to restrict batters and frustration builds then they'll adjust fielders
The bowler's will bowl to the batters strenght and hopefully get them caught as they'll go for what seem a loose bowl
But was planned by captain and bowler's
Cheers guys 🦘🇦🇺👍

Rickys main job was a batsmen, 1 of the best 3 at his best, wanna see a short stop style fielder, look for David Boons best catches... from the 80s
Its amazing that you havent noticed rhat the bowelrt forces these catches by giveing the batter limited choices on how to play at the ball.
We have noticed that. It still hard for us to identify right away or how exactly they do that, but we do know that it happens
Australia won three straight world cups under captaincy of Ricky Ponting.
Mark Waugh is probably his only competition.
BARE HANDS..NO GLOVES..NO JOKE.🤙
My second favourite player (after Sachin ) and second favourite captain (after Dhoni) of all time.
His nickname was Punter
Ponting was a great batsman to!
