Ponting was OK in SL. But, I think his captaincy might be missed if not his batting. He's a hardcore fighter (even in the literal sense
). But, since the Aussies are such a well-oiled machine, I think these are minor hickup for them and they should be fine with Gilchrist as captain and Warne his deputy.
Now, who will replace him? I hope it's not Clarke and they get in some one like Elliot. I rate Clarke very highly and he may do well in India with his nimble footwork and good eyes and I want India to win ofcourse
.
