NEW DELHI: Former Australia Captain Ricky Ponting fears David Warner’s Test occupation would possibly finish on a sad notice following his extended dry run with the bat and the suffering opener runs the danger of lacking out at the ashes collection.
Ponting feels Warner would possibly simply no longer finish his Test occupation on his personal phrases and would fight to discover a position within the traveling Ashes squad after a torrid excursion of India, the place he scored 1, 10 and 15 in 3 innings ahead of returning house with a fractured elbow.
The left-hander has struggled within the final England excursions in 2019, averaging simply 9.5.
“I’ve heard him talk before about their cycle. This current cycle will finish after the World Test Championshipwhich is obviously the week before the first Ashes Test and I would think all going well that they want to get David through until the end of that Test match at least,” Ponting was once quoted as announcing via RSN Cricket.
“It’s up to him though. The only currency you have as a batsman is runs and if you’re not scoring any, you leave yourself open.
“It’s came about to all folks, it came about to me. When you get to a definite age and it looks as if your shape is losing off somewhat, then the knives are sharpened and it does not take lengthy,” he added.
Ponting feels Warner should have quit after scoring a double hundred in the Boxing Day Test against south africa in Melbourne last summer, which was also his 100th match or after the next game at his home ground in Sydney.
“For him to complete the best way he merits to complete, the most obvious factor for me was once possibly to tug the pin after Sydney. He were given 200 in Melbourne, performed his one hundredth Test, performed his a hundred and first Test in Sydney, his house floor and possibly end there,” he said.
“The last item he deserved is to be away on a excursion and get in to the center of a sequence and get dropped and his occupation is over. That could be an terrible means for him to complete.
“He’s a driven little man, a pretty stubborn little bugger, so we’ll see how he goes.”
