"One Of The Best All-Format Players": Ricky Ponting Raves About Travis Head
Australia's 2003 World Cup-winning captain Ricky Ponting was impressed with Travis Head's sensational display and called him one of the best all-format players in the world. Australia's left-handed opener took the fight to Indian bowlers, kept the run flow above the asking rate and produced an exhilarating knock of 137. Ponting hailed Travis for his performance and told Sky Sports, "Travis is emerging as one of the three or four best all-format players in the world. His Test record is outstanding. He is unorthodox at times [in one-day cricket] and you wonder how he will get past the new ball, but he does and scores big runs."
