Ricky Ponting Masterclass Pt1

[dangermows]

First up, a very good and interesting watch.

At one point he is discussing his batting, and says when he was at his best he would always have his front foot off the ground as the bowler let go of the ball, saying this gave him the best chance to react to where the ball was heading.

Yesterday the sky team were analysing Cooks footwork and they highlighted his foot being off the ground when the bowler let go of the ball. But they said this was a technical error and was a reason he is struggling.

So basically are we to read into this that there is no text book way to bat?

i believe the phrase is 'horses for courses'

also it is a question of belief and confidence as much as technical aspects sometimes

I couldn't stand the bloke as a player (his ability was never in question like) but I thought he came across very well in that interview and I hope I catch all of them.

ponting is a twat

as a kid , next thing you learn after tying your shoe laces is " never argue with the umpire"
