Australian opener David Warner also said, “Miss you Ricky.” The comment section was flooded with comments from all over.
The Australian team that won the 2007 World Cup was touted as the best squad of that era, in which Punter was the leading the team. The Aussies won their third consecutive title by defeating Sri Lanka.
Moreover, Ponting also predicted the upcoming clash against India and Pakistan and has backed the Men in Blue to clinch victory because of their depth.
The score is 7-5 in terms of Asia Cup clashes between the neighbouring countries, one ended in a no result.
“I will stick with India to win that clash against Pakistan. That is taking nothing away from Pakistan because they are an incredible cricket nation that continues to present out-and-out superstar players,” said the former Australia captain in an episode of ICC Review.
“It is always hard to go past India in any tournament, not just an Asia Cup, but I think every time we talk about the T20 World Cup which is coming up, I think that India will be right in the thick of it there. Their depth is definitely better than the other teams and I think India will win the Asia Cup,” he added.
The Asia Cup kicks off from 27th August in the UAE, India are the current defending champions.
