On Channel 7 , Ponting said, “Salman was quite impressive in the first couple of Test matches with his off spin. “Didn’t bowl many bad balls. To me, it looks like he gets more work on the ball than what Sajid does. Hasn’t really turned many today, Sajid. Worth giving [Salman] a bit of a crack before the lunch break.” It was exactly what Pakistan did as Slaman dismissed Warner.

Justin Langer, who played under Ricky Ponting, was amazed by the former captain’s cricketing acumen and jokingly asked if he had ever captained a side before. Ponting, with his characteristic wit, replied, “Once or twice JL. What a piece of bowling it was. I had the feeling. He gets a lot of work on the ball.

That took a chunk out of the top of the wicket. Squared Warner up. Off he goes.” Earlier in the Test match, Pakistan reached 313 in their first innings courtesy of Mohammad Rizwan, Salman Agha, and Aamer Jamal. In response, Australia were well placed at 116 for 2 when rain halted the match. The hosts have already won the series 2 0 and would want to take the series 3 0.

Pakistan, on the other hand, are looking for their first win in Australia since 1995. Join our Whatsapp channel to get the latest global news updates Published on: January 04, 2024 13:21:00 IST Tags: Australia Vs Pakistan David Warner.
