I think Ponting may have erased his question mark in the last few tests.
Is this a good thing though? My Aussie mate earlier was banging on about how good is it to see him back in form, but if the Aussies had anyone half decent to take over from him at his age, he should have been finished by now.
Plenty of good young quicks coming through like Starc, Pattinson and Cummins but no real batters. Marsh is going back to state cricket for the forseeable future. Warner played one blinding knock but I do fancy him getting sorted out by a half decent quick on a pitch offering a fraction of movement though every now and then he will come up with a corker of a ton because his hand/eye coordination is immense.
They have been banging on about the likes of Henriques and Ferguson for a while but neither has got near the test team as yet, and a lot of Aussies are hoping the return of Shane Watson will save them (I mean has Aussie cricket got to such depths that they are praying for the return of Shane Watson?).
England will win the Ashes next year at a canter. I wouldnt mind having a few quid on the fact that the only one of the top 7 playing in the current test v India, who will line up in the first Ashes test in 2013 will be Calrke the captain.
