		Ponting, who replaced Waugh as Australian one-day skipper almost two years ago, said he was honoured to be given the job.

		A brilliant top-order batsman, Ponting's hopes of ascending to the captaincy seemed to be in jeopardy a few years ago when he was involved in some off-field indiscretions.

	Management tips from Ricky Ponting
		Ponting: I think it is a good thing for everybody to think that way-whether or not they approach me with their ideas is another thing.
		Ponting: What its done for us is that it made us go away and take a look at ourselves, and what we were doing including looking at any handbrakes that might have been on us during the Ashes series.
		Ponting: I don't think I've changed at all around the team and that was one thing I was very conscious of when I took over the captaincy was to make sure that I stay the same person, that all the guys knew and hopefully respected.

	Ricky Ponting Information
		Ricky Thomas Ponting (born December 19, 1974, in Launceston, Tasmania) is the captain of the Australian One-Day and Test cricket teams.
		Unlike many Australian cricketers, Ponting's talents were quickly rewarded with selection, playing for Tasmania at age 17, with his Test debut coming against Sri Lanka in the 1995/96 season at age 20 at Perth where he was out for a dubious lbw decision for 96 in his first Test innings.
		English commentators commented unfavorably on Ponting’s captaincy compared with that of Michael Vaughan and said that Ponting was clearly frustrated by the fact that he may be going to be the first Australian captain since Allan Border in 1985 to fail to defend the Ashes successfully.

	ricky ponting » The Burnt Bail
		Ricky Ponting stood his ground today, when Mahela Jayawardene claimed a catch at point, whilst the Australians were still in a relatively precarious position in the second VB final.
		Ponting never looked like asking Jayawardene if he had taken it cleanly, in fact he looked as though he was quite vocally letting Jayawardene know his views in the illegitimacy of the catch.
		Ricky Ponting’s new Ashes book was launched today and in it he apparantly makes the assertion that losing the Ashes was ‘not a bad thing’ for Australian cricket.

	Ricky Ponting, the captain with a Midas touch
		Ponting likes challenges and his explosive century in the 2003 Cup final against India was one of the most memorable innings played in a big match of a big tournament.
		Ponting was also the fourth batsman to score a hundred in the final after West Indians Lloyd and Viv Richards (v England in 1979), and Sri Lankan Aravinda de Silva (v Australia in 1996).
		Ponting was in a similar situation this time also when he did not have the services of ace paceman Brett Lee, who was ruled out of the tournament due to an injury.
