Ponting

The more I read about what he says, the more convinced I am that he is very similar to George W. Bush (appearance wise too!)

  • Hmmm....agree, the two not only share a slight resemblance, but also have the same brain content.

    Happy New Year!

  • Happy New Year to you two!!

    My high regards on him as a batsman took a heavy beating after the Sydney test. What this test has managed to achieve is to expose the world of the Aussie antics. Nobody, including the umpires who respect the Aussie words highly, should listen to what they say any more. Look at all the names involved: Ponting, Gilchrist, Clarke, Symonds, Hogg and Hussey - Pretty much the Who's who of the team..

  • By the end of the Perth test I shall air my views on the same:-))

    But as of now all I can say is not a single word that comes out his mouth should be believed:-))

  • GO Rogers!!!!
    When given three words to describe himself Rogers uses "cheeky, irritating and red" and his personal motto is "better red than dead". A steak-and-chips man, Rogers also keeps his batting simple and has refined a method that has been successful on the speed of Perth, the seam of England and the low-bouncing pitches of Pakistan.

  • The big difference is Bush is a loser and Ponting a Winner. So even though they may appear similar or may speak similar, Ponting walks his talk. Indians dont like Ponting because he demolished the so called final frontier, and is on his way to break all records set by one Mr. Tendulkar only that in this case the team is also winning.

  • I feel Pointing is very head-strong and independent on strategy unlike Bush who blindly follows his advisers. Cricket now is like an epic with the Australians ruling and everyone else waiting for a team to beat them!

  • A comment on a comment here.
    I'm guessing both the anons are the same (I also have a sneaky feeling on who it is but I digress)
    Ponting did not demolish the final frontier- it was stand in captain Gilchrist- In the last match where Ponting did ocme back, not only did he fail miserably with the bat, but Australia ended up the losing side. But I don't disagree with your general line of thought.

    Anon: Ponting 'llam poi solravan.

    Maverick: We seem to be the closest team to them.
