Ponting: ‘It’s the innings I’m most proud of’
Former Australia captain Ricky Ponting's 156 at Old Trafford in 2005 saved the game for his side in the end, as he batted for seven hours to ensure a draw, and he says it is the innings he's most proud of, when he looks back.
In this video interview he discusses the marathon innings, and how he felt when he got out with four overs to go. He admits he had zero faith in Glenn McGrath to see out the last few overs!
