South Africa v England - First Test: Day Five

#4: Ricky Thomas Ponting - 5800 runs

England v Australia
Ricky Ponting

One of Australia's best captains, Ricky Ponting grew into Australia's most successful run maker, and only sits below Bradman in the country's overall ratings. A specialist right- handed batsman, Ponting played all the shots with a flourish of the bat.

Famous for his cover drives and pulls, Ponting knows only to attack. Not only known for his batting, his sharp reflexes made him a spectacular slips and close catching fielder. Only batsmen who has more centuries in Tests and ODIs combined is Sachin Tendulkar.
