Shocking captanicy from Ponting, If your not going to bowl White for the majority of the test why bowl him now at the most crucial stage.

Ponting is off the field, Clarke in charge.

Apparently we are so far behind the over rate that Ponting could be banned. Why not use the VC himself or Katich though?

I really do hope the Cameron White experiment is never ever repeated at Test level again.

Yeh, at least not for a while yet. He could end up averaging 35-40 at test level with the bat, but he can't bowl and we could have a batsman that could average 50 instead.

Btw, this is a disaster.

Is it possible that Ponting could be suspended for a test for slow over rates ?

F__k the slow over rates, let's got for the kill. If Ponting has to sit out a test against a third string NZ side so be it.

Yeah he's obviously a decent batsman but he really needs to spend more time working on his bowling. But with Symonds coming back and Watson now doing a good impersonation of a test cricketer I just can't see a spot for him at least in the immdeiate future.
