Welcome to RickyPonting.net. This is a fansite celebrating the talent of Australian cricket captain, Ricky Ponting, who is one of cricket's most gifted batsmen. From Test Matches to the One-Day version of the game, Ricky has lead the world champion team with strength, courage, honesty and dignity. This website is a tribute to a great man, and I hope you enjoy it.

| PONTING IN UMPIRE TALKS | |||
| Trialling of the controversial decision review system should have taken place in one-day and Twenty20 matches before being used in Tests, Ricky Ponting said after the second Test was marred by inconsistent calls and the departure of umpire Mark Benson. The Australian skipper last night met umpires to discuss the system, and also pushed for the use of additional technology such as the ''snickometer''. ''I want to see how they are going with it all.
