Indian Fans Trolled Ricky Ponting Badly

Former Australian cricketer Ricky Ponting, who made his debut in the year 1995, went on to become a phenomenal cricket player. The Australian Cricket team achieved many milestones under his leadership, which included two of the biggest victories of 2003 and 2007 world cup.

When we talk about Ricky Ponting’s achievements, the world cup win of 2003 was the most special one as it was his first ICC event as the skipper of the Australian Cricket team.

18 years ago on March 23, Ricky Ponting impressed one and all with his stunning performance not as a leader but also as a batsman. He went on slam 140 in 120 balls with 8 sixes and 4 fours and buried the chances of the Indian Cricket team to win that match.

Last year, Ricky Ponting took to his social media and shared a picture of his bat that he used in the 2003 world cup. Making everyone nostalgic, Ricky Ponting wrote:

As Ricky Ponting celebrated the World Cup win, the rumors of the Australian batsmen using spring in their bats went viral among the fans. Though there was no social media back then, however, the rumor spread like wildfire and many fans believed that rumour. Infact, R Ashwin, India’s prime spinner in Test cricket, was also among those who believed the rumour.

“Given we’ve all got a bit of time on our hands as we stay at home, thought I’d go through what I’ve kept from my career and share some of it with everyone on a regular basis – this is the bat I used in the 2003 World Cup final.”

Here, check out the Tweet:
