Former Australian cricket captain Ricky Ponting has weighed in on the heated exchange between India's Mohammed Siraj and Australia's Travis Head during the Adelaide Test

'Shami has been India's best bowler for a while. He may not get the amount of wickets Jasprit Bumrah gets, but he's the full package and is more consistent than the rest.'
'I don't know what the maths looks like but we're playing good cricket and we want it to continue.'
He added that it is amazing to watch Head, who wants to play at the peak of his powers and at the moment.
'He knows that Gabba will be a different wicket where he will get to face a lot of bounce and pace and that back foot game needs to be included in his game.'

'No Indian batter has hit more sixes than him against fast bowling in Tests in Australia to date, and he has played only two Tests.'
'He is putting in the hard yards, he is putting in the effort.'
Rohit Sharma's decision-making has come under intense scrutiny, especially after the team's failure to contain Australia's innings in the first session of Day 2.
