Ponting good batsman, but good captain?

Re: Ponting good batsman, but good captain?

he's very good at both: unfortunately now, he doesn't quite have the same resources available to him as he did - say 2 years ago - and any skipper would struggle with that situation. It's a big change going from a Warne/McGrath type line up to a Johnson/Hauritz line up. Even the best would struggle.

Yes but many good captains could turn the situation in to a better one than the current situation.
