Heart Beating match!!!
Zaheer Bowled Well For Come Back India!
Man Of The Match Strauss: I'm happy with the draw? Yes and no. We started well, but had a power play forgettable batting. Shahzad and thanks for bringing us back to Swann. We are supporting us to play better than that, we lost three to four windows quickly. Somehow, we were disappointed and in some respects, we are pleased to have completed the game on. Some good things to have in this game, it is difficult to get up and feedback. It was a great game of cricket, Tendulkar has played very well.
Dhoni: Andrew hit very well, there was a time when England was going out with her and the end of the day, I'm happy with the result. Zak has played very well, have risen from nothing and returns. If not for him, the game was wrapped up in 48 overs. If 338 is not enough, we must score more than 350 in all games that can not happen. If our bowling does not improve, there will come a time in the tournament when things are difficult for us. We have a lot of gardeners some slow and can not do much, but there is room for improvement in the bowling department.
This has been a nerve-wracking encounter to say the least. The balance of the game shifted from one side to the other, at halfway stage the Indians were sitting comfortably at the top, but sensational batting from Strauss took the game totally away from them. But there was a Zaheer Khan, who decided to change a thing or two, came back strongly in the batting powerplay, took crucial wickets to bring India back into the game. But Swann and Shahzad held their nervers and this was a fitting end to an evenly contested game. Absolute thriller! This has surely been the best game this WC, and lets hope there are many such games coming our way though the heart takes a bit of a beating in such games.
Zaheer Khan: Strauss batted really well, he put pressure on us and it was a cliffhanger. Always knew that 340 was a big enough score to win, we thought we will win it easily, it was a close contest between the bat and ball. Powerplays can go either ways, we got wickets in quick succession and came back into the game. We are clicking as a batting unit, as far as the bowling is concerned, we need to improve but there is time.
Sir Sachin Tendulkar’s spectacular century set the tone for a formidable 338 all out against England despite the team not managing to complete playing out the entire 50 overs.It was a clinical and effective display of the willow’s prowess by Dhoni’s men as Sachin(120), Gambhir(51) and Yuvraj(58) made their mark at M Chinnaswamy Stadium, giving enoughreasons to the Indian fans to cheer their throats hoarse.
Scorecard: India Vs England»
England did manage to stop a complete carnage with two wickets in two balls (Yuvraj and Dhoni) towards the death. Soon after, Virat Kohli (8) and Yusuf Pathan (14) fell while trying to up the ante. Harbhajan was out plumb in front of the wicket for a duck and this sudden array of wickets falling did give a breather for the visitors, not letting the target go beyond the psychological barrier of 350 runs.
Tendulkar playing in a match celebrating the World Cup at home after a hiatus of fifteen years with its 98th century international fast smart and, above all, the sublime. It was his fifth century in a World Cup, the most by a drummer in the history of sport.
Michael Yardy was the man to have in the window of the Indian captain MS Dhoni largest reserves showing the lid. Things have not changed for the better, yet for the visitors as the legendary Indian batting line-up stayed true to his word.
India top order clicked at the right time, establishing a solid platform for a mammoth total and central order simply follow suit.
Tendulkar ended with a spectacular fifty-six, bringing the crowd to their feet Bangalore. His companion at the other end, Gambhir, also won half of the century, deserved well of their own, but could not continue with the stick.
In the morning, was found only a temporary setback for India as Virender Sehwag (35) reckless sleeves finally ended when he was captured bright window behind Matt Prior to the extraction of blood in the first place.
Sehwag had initiated proceedings against England in style - sending the ball beyond the border in the first installment of himself. The ball flew just after the fingers of the play slip and nerves soon calmed down.
Giving Sehwag company at the other end was Sachin Tendulkar, who saw the joke Delhi blaster the English side, lobbying three possible attacks in the first year that could not be taken. However, the ball found the edge of the stick more often Viru, ending his season with the bat for the day.

Pakistan wins vs Shri-lanka what game undoubtedly the match of the tournament so far!
| Pak 277/7(50.0) | SL 267/9(50.0) |
Pakistan wins what game was undoubtedly the match of the tournament so far! Pakistan maintained their unbeaten run to the WC SL live, who have won today July 7 is also the first loss at home to WC SLUf! What a game! How close is this game? What misfield proved costly? Which in turn proved to be the game changer? It was the match of the tournament so far. Pakistan beat Sri Lanka in its citadel, the R Premadasa Stadium. But it was too close, down to the last envelope.
Shahid Afridi picked up his third window to fire his counterpart of the 49 tracks to leave Sri Lanka struggling at 169 / 5 after 38 overs.
Afridi is the MoM for his brilliant haul of 4/34.
Afridi: This was a big game. Misbah and Younis were amazing. I am also happy with my effort. We really have to pick up on our fielding for the upcoming games. The conditions were wonderful for the bowlers, there was a lot of turn and bounce for this wicket. We have sent a good message to the other teams. We will come at them harder and harder as the tournament progresses. Sangakkara: Any defeat is hard in front of a home crowd. Unfortunately, we lost three quick wickets. We made it hard for ourselves by losing wickets at regular intervals. Pakistan played really well. Misbah and Younis Khan batted well in the middle overs and they found the singles easily. We did well in restricting them to 270. I would have scored a bit quickly, but I am happy with my form.
Misbah: Having a bit of a sprain, but the doctor says I'll be fine in two or three days. It was a very important game, playing SL at home, we're glad we got there. The ball is now a bit low, it was to remain there until the end I had to swing through and score as short as possible. Release is very important when you play here in SL, happy to have beaten first.
I think shrilanka miss Mallinga so much. Playing before a huge crowd at home can be a double-edged sword and Sri Lanka have wilted under pressure in the Premadasa stadium. Had obvious reason after the drawing on Sangakkara said he was a little nervous and continued to show that nearly ruined the first entry in. Pressure piled on when Pakistan has posted a very good score. Sri Lanka appeared to be a bit confused about the first attack or keep windows and windows falling at regular intervals did not help his cause either. Afridi was in front and was a source of inspiration in the field. Played an important role in five of the first six windows to fall. Akhtar had been crucial shots, but the most encouraging for Pak smoked even in death showing much better shape. Pakistan held their nerve for a famous victory to boost his confidence.Pakistan vs Sri Lanka in Colombo.Pak 277/7(50.0) - Misbah-ul-Haq 84(92)
Top Misbah-ul-Haq scored an unbeaten 83 to make 277 for Pakistan against Sri Lanka in Colombo.
Colombo, February 25, 2011: Pakistan have their World Cup match against Sri Lanka, Saturday is one of the most crucial group A, but will not be intimidated by players from local or partisan fans.
Malinga said Afridi, known for his slingy action, it would be difficult after the party lost in Canada due to a back injury. "Malinga is a very good player, but returned from injury, so we'll see how strong he is and how it can adapt to the conditions," said Afridi.
"If the starters give us a good platform, then we have to come in the form batsmen in the order in half," said Afridi.
Pakistan can win this game?
Let's see how it is done .....
Khan Younis: A good result, we need a bowl and field well. We have ten to fifteen working, but we have a line of bowling the right place. Plan them out container.
Afridi said that they have to develop something between 270-280 with the kind of bowling on the line until they have. Will you be better guests this time?
Vals Pakistan to 76 for 1 after 13 overs when a moment of madness which led to exhaustion Mohammad Hafeez, split the party. Inevitably, the drama has coincided with the introduction of Muttiah Muralitharan. Hafeez was not moving after sweeping legs short, but Kamran Akmal load through the other end. Kumar Sangakkara also panicked and threw the throw on a scale lost Murali but mid-off was the backup. In the ensuing chaos, Hafeez played on your pregnancy, and was executed. Inexplicably, Kamran changed his game since then, locked in a closed shell and Sri Lanka will soon go crazy Kamran burned by a swipe of Pakistan bogey man Rangana Heras to leave the game terribly convenient for the halfway mark to Colombo.
Up to this misunderstanding, Kamran Hafeez and writing were a combination of charm, full of daring and skill. Hafeez, as always, is compact and looked in the mood to deal with sleeves. He shrugged off the fall of his opening partner and unleashed a flurry of class. Is heated with a win in the cover element Thisa Perera and began to sink with a delicious end to drive the point back against Nuwan Kulasekara. Became more compelling in the seventh, again off Kulasekara, with a bold thrust deep midwicket six in one knee and cut a wicked tour had a great leg.
The tests were to be easy, especially with Kamran also search the current form. Any directory Kamran presented: soft square unit, cutting, drilling through the cover point and even launched a smart move on the square leg after stepping on the stumps.
Everything was very good for Pakistan, but also holding events, Kamran best defense, Sri Lanka spinners seized the moment and the game gradually returned to equilibrium.

| Michael Clarke |
Total New Zealand did not seem to be enough for the pavement and VCA, and a swing when Haddin and Watson left the same courses to make 136-2, Australia has never been seriously disturbed.
Australia's biggest concern may be in the form of Ponting, who was confused by Brendon McCullum off the bowling of Tim Southee for 12 from 28 balls.
Michael Clarke finished unbeaten on 24 with Cameron White 22.
Vettori opened the bowling for New Zealand and Nathan McCullum was in before the power play was no longer mandatory, but none of the spinners could slow the scoring.
Haddin scored more quickly at first, running more than 46 by 10, but then assumed the role of anchor that Watson began to beat him.
Haddin added only five more to the end of the 16 th over, while Watson ran 21 to 53 - helped by six large deep midwicket against McCullum.
Watson had been successful in a reference against a leg before wicket when taking 10, replays showed the delivery Southee would drift across the leg and dropped to 59 when replacement fielder dropped Kane Williamson Vettori depths.
But there was no respite for Haddin when swatted a ball slowly Hamish Bennett Williamson at midwicket in the next class.Watson then pulled the same bowler on his stumps two balls later, but Australia had a lot of stick to come.
Even after impressive performances in India, Sri Lanka and South Africa, Australia seem to be the team to beat in the tournament. Its remaining group matches against Sri Lanka, Kenya, Canada and Pakistan.
Australia has defeated their cross-Tasman rivals 10 times in the last 14 games, completed a day between the parties and to maintain its dominance in the Chappell-Hadlee Trophy - which is usually contested in the annual bilateral series, but today These days the line because teams do not meet this year.

The South Africans have started their WC campaign with a bang!
 |
| AB de Villiers 107(105) smashes |
Graeme Smith: Darren Bravo played well and when the game seemed to get away from us, we were together in the middle and throw things acquisitions. We have created a pressure on the mass of new and wickets fell in clusters. He had not played for ten days and is essential for us to make the best of our abilities. AB hit the ball gently and it was great to form an alliance with him.
Darren Sammy: We could have published much more than they scored, Darren Bravo has continued to impress at all times and is a good thing. We lost wickets in groups that do not help us. No news on the injury to Dwayne. I hope that will be available to the rest of the tournament. We need to see the extent of the injury, then take a call.
JP Duminy: It is ideal to start a tournament with a win. It was not too difficult to start on this wicket. I took my time to start. It was a special move AB, and is great to see him in shape. We have great confidence in this victory because it was a complete team effort.
The South Africans began their campaign with a bang! The West Indies have been to blame after batting collapse. Darren Bravo gave them a solid platform, but the Windies failed to capitalize. They arrived in a bowl, started by taking two wickets quickly, but AB de Villiers played a brilliant shot, his 10th ODI century, to take home with 7.1 Proteas comfortably carry spares. Duminy and Graeme Smith has also made great contributions with the bat.
Tahir made a memorable entry:
 |
| Tahir debued with 4 wickets for 41 run |
Team South Africa has one of the most powerful package of attacks in the world today. Steyn, Morkel and Tsotsobe are a combination of bowling that any captain would die. So when Graeme Smith decided to go with three spinners for the South African World Cup match against the West Indies, who had the cricket world into a frenzy. Showing great faith in Botha, Peterson and the new man, Tahir, Smith and added a new twist in the story by choosing the field after winning the toss. But the gamble paid off as the spinners, especially Tahir, came out with great success.
Imran Tahir has made a memorable debut collect four wickets in the crucial moments in the series in the Caribbean. It was introduced into the attack in the 14th over when Darren Bravo and Devon Smith took the attack to the bowlers in South Africa. Tahir has not been spared from his second place 11 points, including six in a massive swing in mid sauce off Bravo. Therefore, retired before 25 after more than Botha took IPN Bravo. But when Tahir stamped his authority on the game.
He hit the first of its second session very taking Devon Smith with some classics of theft and deception. Tahir's next over was just as exciting. He sent packing after Sarwan trapped LBW and Dwayne Bravo almost too big of a return catch.
Tahir fourth wicket perhaps most critical in triggering the collapse of the West Indies came in the form of a set Chanderpaul. It was the 43 th over and Chanderpaul looked foot on the gas to help West Indies reach a competitive total. After hitting the first ball of a long inner boundary with a last-off, Chanderpaul tried another shot loft only to find Peterson. The gate into a disaster for men in the Caribbean, the next four drummer could add 13 more runs to score and finished the manga suddenly Antilles 222.
Imran Tahir was a start to remember and could not have come at a better time. After all, this is the cup that counts!
Pakistan Wins Against Kenya Shahid Afridi to be takes 5 wicket, What a Start!
Four of the Pakistan batsmen took half a century to build and equip a total of 317 for 7 after a brief turn against the new ball and Kenya have made little effort to mount a challenge in its search, rather the search for a strong platform for dismissal in the hope of hitting its quota of overs. The latter proved to be a futile effort, too, though in the manga does not last at least until the 34 th most - in his first complete game against New Zealand three days ago.
Kenya's slide began in earnest when he introduced himself and in his third Afridi more tempted by Steve Tikolo field to tip the ball straight to shake off the strains. Kenya, 73 for 3 in 23 more when Tikolo was dismissed without any real hope of driving more than 300 but at least fairly constant search of all 50 after the top order showed at least a little grain. There was no such offer from the center, however, that the other seven wickets fell for just 39 runs in just over ten overs.
Afridi was the chief wrecking ball, quickly ended a manga animation Tanmay Mishra and make short work of Jimmy Kamande and Odoya Thomas, and features a mixture of legbreaks, cursors and faster than the ball started to bite and spit on the surface. Amid the carnage, open to avoid big hit three sixes but was caught at the border trying to give Afridi fourth best figures by a Pakistan bowler in a World Cup, beating Wasim Akram, 5 to 28 against Namibia in Kimberley in 2003 the tournament. Once gone, the end is fast approaching, thank God.
Finally, flattered to deceive, but against the expectations of Kenya has screw opening exchanges of the meeting, Thomas and Elijah Otieno Odoya showing remarkable control with the new ball. Otieno provided the first breakthrough when Hafeez tried to break into the discharge side of the leg, but hit uppishly Seren and Water midwicket right, jump left and managed to hang on a simple decision juggling inch grass. In the following, more than Shehzad, who had scratched around for 17 balls, which only took a single step leading minced Jimmy Kamande to give an easy catch to mid off and Pakistan have been in some serious problems.
The pressure is raised too soon, however, Kamran Akmal and Jan settle quickly and Nehemiah Odhiambo having a chaotic start to die on a first took place in 16 runs that included three balls without Khan. Kamran was the most common early two-run, but Younis has provided support and sensitive, as the spinners came, many of which have been taken and the two to keep the scoreboard ticking over.
There were four scores over fifty laps in Pakistan, which is the highest common for the number of ratings of more than fifty years in an innings in the team World Cup.
Pakistan 317 is the highest score in ODIs against Kenya, surpassing its previous best of 286 in Sharjah in 2003. It is also the fourth highest total in World Cup.
Kenya recognized 44 extras, which is fifth in the list of most of the extras are granted by a team in a match of the World Cup.
Misbah-ul-Haq scored his fourth half century in 11 races since August 2009. In the same period, scored 428 runs at an average of 47.55, which is much higher than his career average of 40.48.
Pakistan scored 112 points in the last decade extensions of their entries, including 70 power play points in batting. South Africa holds the record for most points in the last ten overs ODIs since 2000, with 146 runs against Pakistan at Centurion in 2007.
205 of the race victory was the largest margin of victory of Pakistan in the World Cup and also the worst defeat of Kenya in the World Cup.
The 112 is the third lowest score of Kenya in the World Cup. The lowest is 69 against New Zealand in the opening match of the 2011 World Cup.
England beat Netherlands by six wickets
England 296/4 (Strauss 88, Trott 62) beat Netherlands 292/6 (ten Doeschate 119 *, Cooper 47) by six wickets.
Ryan ten Doeschate reached a five overthrows brilliant hundred, England v Netherlands, Group B, World Cup, Nagpur, February 22, 2011
Ryan ten Doeschate 110 119 produced a brilliant ball, and followed with brilliant bowling figures of two for 47 in ten overs to give England one of the greatest fears of international life. However, their efforts were not good enough to push the Netherlands to an incredible victory in the World Cup opens in Nagpur.
Facing a massive target of 293, and humiliation on a scale larger than two Lord suffered years ago, England has responded with a determined batting performance in the spotlight, thanks to the compound semi-Andrew Strauss century Jonathan Trott, finally reached safety with six windows and eight balls to spare. However, the margin of victory does not do justice to this trip, they were forced to undertake. If England has faced, he would certainly have fallen in the biggest upset in World Cup history.
The final reports were marked by the possibility, as England struggled to a run rate barely fell below seven for one, against a team of pumping performers who could handle this adrenaline device main opening World Twenty20 . With 69 needed from the last ten overs, Trott was extremely puzzled leg-side wide by Wesley Barresi, who has started the shift with a sparky Dutch cameo 29 from 25 balls, and when the man in the form of Ian Bell was central trunk road by the end of ten Doeschate ball, the Nagpur was truly lives up to its reputation as the city of Orange.
This dismissal left England's destiny in the hands of Paul Collingwood, who has barely been able to buy an international event during the winter and Ravi Bopara, whose entry to the detriment of the second turbine Michael Yardy contributed to their problems field, but eventually bought by a vital 30 not out from 20 balls, including six reliever more time on the first ball at the 49 - the first time in England.
It Collingwood, which has proven to be key, however. England captain when they lost in 2009, ten years before, had also been on the receiving end of a wing NatWest Trophy while playing for Durham in Amstelveen.

It Collingwood, which has proven to be key, however. England captain when they lost in 2009, ten years before, had also been on the receiving end of a wing NatWest Trophy while playing for Durham in Amstelveen.
It was very heavy. Whereas previous crises have revolved around batting collapse in serviceable condition - think of Ireland in Jamaica four years ago, or the West Indies against Kenya in 1996 - this action has to do with weight issues such as the Dutch have managed to stack of ridicule on the shoulders of England. With the honor associated with cricket like never before, following the decision to reduce the 2015 World Cup 10 teams, and in light of recent capitulation by Canada and Kenya in Group A, was a performance that showed the second largest sport in the best and fastest imaginable light.
skill in ten Doeschate limited-overs cricket is not a secret - an average of 54 last season and CB40 intervened with nine wickets in Essex advanced to the semifinals - but England did not respond to his technique and shot selection set to began compound before exploding in the delayed closure with 52 points in his last 26 deliveries. Came to the crease on 12 and if you had 12 balls to get off the mark, the value of measuring the rate of the payment window.
In total, Ten Doeschate nine fours and three sixes in a stay of 110 balls, which first came out a full soft start Kevin Pietersen, two reports were sent to the 19 and pointed out the folly of omitting Yardy England - medium pace Bopara was not called. Swann, on his return to the team after the birth of their son Wilfred was the resumption of the England players with 2 of 35 in ten for acquisitions, while Stuart Broad has been fatal if a touch expensive in his first international match since the test Adelaide in December. But ten Doeschate treated the rest of the England attack with contempt, and enhancing its fourth century and the highest in 28 games for the Netherlands.
England 25 overs 136 for 1 (Strauss 76 *, 11 * Trott) need another 157 runs to beat the Dutch 292 for six (ten Doeschate 119 *, Cooper 47)
Andrew Strauss restored some authority to the performance of England, with an average of 34 to control the ball of the century as he and Kevin Pietersen has laid the groundwork for a run chase with a rigid opening stand of 105 to 17.4 overs. At the halfway point of their entries, which were placed in a promising 136 for one in the spotlight, with Jonathan Trott beds in 11 steps, but still need a hard requirement from 157 to 6, more than 28.
England need to raise the morale of his ideas, after a terrible effort in the field, and with Pietersen and Strauss in the early association of the first opening in a full international, the pressure in more than one way. However, initial evidence was an alliance that could bear fruit if you have time to bloom. Although Strauss was involved in each of the last five-century England represents the first wicket, each of them come with a different partner - Pietersen, Steve Davies, Craig Kieswetter, Joe Denly and Ravi Bopara.
For now, however, all focus should be on an England game can not afford to lose. Began with the clear intention of Strauss snaffle three fours in the first year of Mudassar Bukhari - two clips with the toes and a significant reduction in blood accidental fainted while Pietersen was both a reader gently scheduled Outswing for Westdijk Berend.
On a bridge to slow down, Pietersen was the instinct to move on the front foot at every opportunity, and time was of good humor despite continued collecting gardeners dressed in a well drilled in the Netherlands. Meanwhile, Strauss was left in his room and took the inexperienced Dutch to push and pull of eight of his nine boundaries behind square on the leg side.
A peculiarity of the first acquisitions was the imbalance in the number of balls faced by each batsman. Pietersen dominated the strike, and at one point faced twice as many deliveries of the three points. But, like toughness out of the new ball and goalkeeper Wesley Barresi pedestrian approached the stump, his statements to the tail considerably.
After scoring 29 of his first 31 balls, Pietersen made only 10 of their next 30 before Pieter Seeler added his name to the list of left arm spinners have captured one of the most notable scalp in world cricket. A delivery attempt was expelled from the trunk, and Pietersen failed to get his feet as he has placed an order to cover short arrogant.
Trott role in one-day cricket is under some control despite his impressive statistics, but the serene look of an opportunity to make him the man the right to enter the fray at No. 3. At the halfway point of the entries, which has been in the bedding and 11 from 19 balls, as England looked in control of their fate probably the first time in the game.
Australia open with big win against Zimbabwe
Ponting: It was a good start for us. Zimbabwe spinners rather annoying and it was difficult to go there. However, around half rose. We will try to keep windows off until the middle and ensure that negotiated the difficult moments of the spinners. The wicket played really well. Fortunately, we wickets in hand and led us to a good total. The players did well. Tait well and that is an advantage for us. KREJZA discomfort right in the middle and I'm happy with the form. First, beaten primarily by the dew factor.
Watson: It was a good day today. It took me awhile to get there. Zimbabwe alter the spinners well with the new ball. There will be many of the spinners to use against us. The ball does not rotate so much in this window. This game was good practice to turn as the tournament progresses.
Shane Watson is the mother of 79 for his shot.
Johnson: I felt good today. The pace was good and it's good for the counterattack. Zimbabwe came out firing and is a good win for us. I wanted to keep a good mix of gorillas and full balls. The wicket was slow at first and turn players Zimbabwe upset
Chigumbura: Australia is limited to less than 270, but we need to strengthen our club. I was happy with the bowlers, but the absence of the fifth bowler to hurt us. It was a very good wicket to bat on. We have to win against Canada.
Zimbabwe started well with Coventry playing some sweet shots, but once it was drawn by Lee and collapsed hoses. Johnson had a quick stop short and therefore always going to be a difficult task and it showed in the final. Cremer has played well with Utsey, but it is only delaying the inevitable. Australia have won remained unbeaten for 30 consecutive matches in the World Cup and the giant rolls only. Do not stay tuned to the presentation ...

Places in India Ricky Ponting, as is evident fight AM.
According to the International Cricket Council, India is ranked as number one Test team yet. To change the classification, the Australians, in the course of the borders and Gavaskar Trophy, making every effort to recover its loss test cricket glory. In addition, the series is also important to Australian captain Ricky Ponting test to try to win their first series on Indian soil. However, this dream has finally ended with a defeat at Mohali in the two groups overlap. Accordingly, the first Australian captain is doing everything possible to snatch a 1-1 draw to collect their pride.
The current series is important to raise the morale of Australians in English before the meeting of the Ashes later this year. However, if the Australians to get another test series defeat at the hands of the Indians, his rank was reduced to the test in the fifth on the placement test of the International Criminal Court.
The Australians have an impressive record of proof against the Indians Down Under, where he won 22 and lost 5 games of the last test 36. However, the Indians have certainly dominated cricket Test on Indian soil with 14-12 in favor of India in Test matches with India sites.
Instead, Ricky Ponting, as captain and batsman had horrible record of the evidence against the Indians in their homelands. The former captain of Australia has an overall batting average from 54.66 to 146 test matches played by him, but he has a batting average of 20.85 in the poor test of 12 matches played in India.

Due to injury, the Australian captain was unable to play test match series 2004-05 AOT. Could not be in a test match where he scored a mediocre 23 points in two innings.
However, the Australians have not won a Test match in India under the captaincy of Ricky Ponting, has played five tests as captain in which he lost three and drawn two tests. Not to mention the test series win in Australia in India in 2004-05, who were under the captaincy of wicket-keeper Adam Gilchrist and Ponting was ruled out due to injury.
One might assume that the India bowling attack has a taste for it. However, the reality is that Ponting is averaging 79.35 against the excellent testing equipment India 11 Test matches against India in Australia.

The current series against India and then in the ashes at home is a chance to succeed Ponting Australia, AM Allan Border and South Africa captain Graeme Smith batting record as captain. While Ponting has a test average over as captain of both, but is still short of 400 runs.
The Australian captain is also in the running for the highest number of Test centuries as captain, along with South African captain Graeme Smith test, the AM 19 centuries. Ponting will soon become the captain of the first test for 20 centuries in Test cricket. Do not forget that the captain of Australia is third in line for the greatest number of catches in Test cricket, with a collection of 172 catches in 146 test matches. The veteran needs to catch more than 10 fellow team-mate Mark Waugh, the Australian national registry AM 181 catches in 128 tests, and 24 more catches to break the Indian veteran Rahul Dravid drummer, AM 196 test catches 142 matches.
