Ricky Ponting joins Australia Cricket Coaching Staff

by June 7th, 2018

Australia’s coach Justin Langer has added former skipper Ricky Ponting to his coaching staff for Australia’s one day international series overs series with England starting next week.

It will be the second time Ponting has worked with Langer as part of the national team’s coaching structure, having previously provided support during their 2017 T/20 internationals against Sri Lanka.

Ponting – who coached the Delhi daredevils during the recent IPL– also worked alongside former head coach Darren Lehmann in the Tri-series with England and New Zealand earlier this year.

Australia begin their five-match series with England at the oval on June 13, and Langer is delighted to have Ponting’s support as they look to rebuild their reputation following the recent ball-tampering scandal.
