Ricky Ponting Bowling Quotations

I am the captain, but I am not batting for everyone in the side and I am not bowling for everyone,

We came up a little bit short with our batting but our new ball bowling was outstanding,

Brett is like he is because of his pace. If he drops back he becomes easier to hit so we addressed that last night. It's a confidence thing and about understanding the way he has to bowl. We've addressed these issues quite a few times with Brett, we did it with his one-day bowling a few years ago, and hopefully today is a step in right direction.

Every individual has got to put their hand up and stand up in a game that counts... There's no other option now, if guys can't get up for a game like the one we've got coming up, then they shouldn't be playing. I wouldn't think a batting change would come from outside the squad, and to tell the truth I don't think a bowling change would either.

I think we've been a lot more disciplined with our bowling. Our batting at times has been more disciplined as well.
