Yeah Right

With that much experience this is the sort of statement we don't see Sachin Tendulkar making.

One Eyed Ricky

Too Soon To Tell

The brains trust don't look like they are 100% sold on their Mumbai Indians just yet.

A First Time For Every Thing (Eventually)

Punter gets to cuddle up to the Sheffield Shield for the first time. Great thing about cricket - there is always another mountain to climb.

Gone But Not Out

Sheffield Shield Player of the Year -  not bad for an old fella eh?

The Time Has Come

Decision made for Ponting.

Good luck to a great player.

Maybe now he can rid of himself of that "possum looking for a set of headlights" expression.

Slightly Off Balance

I bet nobody was more pleased with the deeds of Clarke and Hussey than the old Punter.

Too Soon To Tebow?

Resorting to prayer on the first day of the first test is not a sign of great mental strength!

When 50 Matters

Steady Eddy and The Punter put their backs to the wall and ground out a couple of very important 50's. Just what you would expect from a couple of Diggers on Anzac Day.

The Sun Comes Up Tomorrow

Ponting puts more than a brave face on his dropping but you get the feeling that somewhere, some time, a bowler is going to be made to pay.

Some Days The Christians Eat The Lions!

Punter In Profile

Ponting might be getting old but the feeling of scoring a double ton never does.

The Middle Order

A Little Off Balance

Sporting wicket?
Over confidence?
Good bowling?

It will be very interesting to see if the Aussie second innings can regain some of the composure they had coming into this test.

At The Crease

Getting to the crease is all very well but Ponting's future seems to rest on whether he can stay there with a bat in his hand.

Forget the 47 ...

... its the 21 for 9 that is going to be waking you up in the middle of the night.

Cricket? No!

OK, it has nothing to do with cricket but I couldn't help having a play with this image. It may be too late for Ricky Pointing to copy the hair do, and perhaps too much of a stretch for Shane Warne.

Is The Drawing On The Wall?

Or is Ricky just looking for new ways to contribute?

Nice Night...

... for a game of cricket.

Penny For Them

Couple of old heads in this image - any ideas what thoughts might be circulating within them?
